SUMMARY:Piano Spheres presents Enno Poppe's "Rundfunk"
DESCRIPTION:Enno Poppe\, among the most important composers in Germany today\, created “Rundfunk” (“Broadcast”) for nine synthesizers as a loving tribute to the music studios of the public broadcasting services which led to some magical moments of a medium that aimed to interrogate its own possibilities and requirements: “I don’t use historic instruments\, but historic sounds from the ‘60s and ‘70s: FM synthesis\, Minimoog\, Piganino. Their pioneers are Gottfried Michael Koenig\, Thomas Kessler\, John Chowning\, Wendy Carlos\, and Tangerine Dream. No original instruments are being used but only computer-generated reproductions.” In the field of electronic music there has been rapid technical development for decades. Just as rapid is the fading of those same new technologies. Often\, earlier pieces can no longer be performed today because the required technologies went missing or don’t work anymore\, or performers simply don’t know how things were done 25 years ago. \n“The virtuosically polyphonic piece titled Rundfunk\, composed for nine synthesizers by Enno Poppe which\, although pure electronic music\, is nonetheless a symphony in three movements.” -Die Zeit \nUS PREMIERE \nPerformed by: \nVicki Ray\nThomas Kotcheff\nAron Kallay\nNic Gerpe\nJack Dettling\nAshley Zhao\nTodd Moellenberg\nBrendan White\nKaitlyn Vahala
