Lecture „a new virtuosity: performance practices in new music“

Vortrag von Owen Davis an einer amerikanischen Universität über heutige performative Ausdrucksformen in der Neuen Musik. Auch mit Beispielen aus meinen Arbeiten [ab 37’30“].

As soon as new music began to provide an alternative to conventional music in terms of construction, conception, and aesthetics, the mode of production became drastically different and experimental to accommodate this movement. Debussy said that „a day and age of planes, trains, and telephones needed its own music“. Now in a day and age in which people are making new music for a new future, the techniques involved in this work are ever evolving and even resisting being normalized and categorized into systems of value judgements or technical virtuosity.
