En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Paul Jeukendrup

Die Hommage an den 2024 verstorbenen ungarischen Komponisten wird zum Großerfolg: Evgeny Titov wartet mit einer schlüssigen Inszenierung auf, und Maxime Pascal steuert mit dem Klangforum Wien viel Atmosphärisches bei. 

Over 10 years after his death, Karlheinz Stockhausen still occupies a complex and difficult place in the canon of contemporary composers. This year's Musikfest Berlin featured a Stockhausen focus, of which the "creation ceremony" Inori was the climax.

An evening of frivolousness and solemnity.

My preparations for a Thursday evening trip to Lincoln Center: studying the super-formula of Stockhausen’s 29-hour opera project, entitled Licht; choosing an outfit in the perfect shade of cerulean; girding myself for a panic attack similar to the one I experienced the last time I witnessed a section from Licht (Oktophonie).
