| Britten Studio, Snape Maltings, Aldeburgh, Aldeburgh, United Kingdom Saturday 15-Jun-13 08:00pm Stockhausen: Kontakte A sonic tennis match for electronics and live performers, Kontakte is a 20th century musical icon, one of the crowning glories of the first wave of electronic music composition. An inspiration for artists ranging from Jonathan Harvey to Aphex Twin and written in 1958–60, before the invention of musical synthesizers, Stockhausen’s piece was created using technology designed for radio broadcasting.
This version of the piece, combining electronic sounds with acoustic piano and percussion, is the pioneering work which has provided the starting point for the myriad of artists who have explored this rich world of possibilities ever since. The ‘contacts’ of the title emerge as volleys of sound, ‘hit’ between the electronic and the live participants.‘Karlheinz Stockhausen… has visited the outer reaches of music and reported back.’ - BBC Radio 3 presenter Robert Worby | ||

| Royal Albert Hall, London, Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AP, United Kingdom Friday 19-Jul-13 10:15pm Prom 11 Last summer Graham Vick’s Birmingham Opera Company transformed a disused factory in Digbeth, Birmingham, into the fantastical world of Karlheinz Stockhausen’s epic opera Mittwoch aus ‘Licht’ with two bactrian camels, four helicopters and a wash of yellow light. Tonight Ex Cathedra and Jeffrey Skidmore revisit the Babel tower of the opera’s most dazzling section, Welt-Parlament (‘World Parliament’): a multilingual a cappella tour de force of extended vocal techniques. Written 30 years earlier, Gesang der Jünglinge has been hailed as Stockhausen’s first electronic masterpiece, a mind-popping sonic translation of the biblical story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.Tickets £12 - £16.

| The Hub, Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH1 2NE, United Kingdom Wednesday 21-Aug-13 10:00pm Pierre-Laurent Aimard, Marco Stroppa and Samuel Favre A vibrant depiction of the natural world and a pioneering work of electronics meet in pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard’s second late-night recital. Aimard has been widely praised for his visionary performances of Messiaen’s radiant piano music. Tonight he evokes the birds, animals, fl owers and landscape of the remarkable La Rousserolle Effarvatte (‘The Reed Warbler’), an avian portrait that charts a whole day in the French countryside through birdsong and the sounds of nature. In his Kontakte (‘Contacts’), Stockhausen harnessed early electronic technology in a thrilling exploration of rhythm, sound and space, pitting electronics against piano against percussion and sending music spinning through space. | ||

| Muziekgebouw aan ’t IJ: Main Hall, Amsterdam, Piet Heinkade 1, Amsterdam 1019 BR, Netherlands Wednesday 9-Oct-13 08:15pm Asko | Schönberg De jaren vijftig. Terwijl uit de naoorlogse puinhopen een nieuwe samenleving wordt opgetrokken, staat de muziek in het teken van een radicale herijking. Asko|Schönberg maakt een muzikale tournee door het toenmalige Europa. Vulkanische vernieuwingsdrang en ongekende experimenteerdrift voerden toen de boventoon. De reis begint in Duitsland en Vlaanderen, waar componisten Stockhausen en Goeyvaerts alle muzikale elementen in reeksen vastlegden; het serialisme. In Frankrijk en Italië geven de toen jonge Italiaanse componisten Nono en Maderna hun eigen draai aan de erfenis van Arnold Schönberg, aangespoord door twaalftoonstovenaar Luigi Dallapiccola. Ondertussen trekt componist André Jolivet in Frankrijk zijn eigen plan: zijn jazzy Tweede trompetconcert is een tumultueus eerbetoon aan de vooruitstrevende muziek van Edgar Varèse. € 27,00 / € 21,50 Stadspas / € 21,50 CJP | ||
