20 Years Ensemble Zeitfluss

Ensemble Zeitfluss celebrates 20 years!
To mark this special anniversary, the ensemble invites everyone to a festive concert in the Minoritensaal in Graz. The concert will also be dedicated to Beat Furrer’s 70th birthday this year.

Anselm Schaufler’s Klarinettenkonzert offers the solo clarinet plenty of room to unfold. The ensemble is closely interwoven with the sound of the solo part, expanding it spatially so to speak and not merely acting as an accompaniment. The piece cannot be subordinated to either a modernist fashion or a rigid tradition, but instead aims to make a liberated statement.

Beat Furrer Still

Anticlinal flux by Hannes Kerschbaumer introduces the glissotar instrument into the context of contemporary ensemble music for the first time. Its technical possibilities – above all the glissando – are ideally combined with central characteristics of Kerschbaumer’s aesthetic. Inspired by the geological phenomenon of fold formation, meso- and macroformal progressions were derived and transformed into purely musical structures.

The process and creation of an imaginary, pre-existing species inspired Tasos Stylianou to create his work Vrontigotrafigos. It was created by carefully studying its ‘DNA’ structure and answering questions about its possible form, its internal structure and also its behaviour during its lifetime.
