Par LACHENMANN HELMUT. temA was written in the summer of 1968. In spite of Ligeti's “Aventures” it may be considered one of the first compositions in which the breathing plays a role as an accoustically transmitted energy process (Holliger, Globokar, Kagel, Schnebel and Stockhausen in “Hymnen” have already worked on this phenomenon independently of each other and from different points of view).

The piece owes ist attractiveness principally to ist characteristically Vivaldian transparency and formal perfection, and to the way in which the voices are allowed to blossom within clearly fashioned structures, while all the tonal possibilities of the small…

Aus: Drei Motetten. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Inspiration for the Three Motets op. 39 was a visit to the romanesque church of Trinità dei Monti. On 20 Dec 1830 Mendelssohn wrote to his parents: 'The French nuns sing there, and it is wonderfully lovely. . . . Now, one should know one more thing: that one is not allowed to see the singers. Therefore I have come to an unusual decision: I will …
