New Music By Karlheinz Essl

This is a 5 hour recording of Karlheinz Essl's sound installation WebernUhrWerk. Every 15 minutes, a short Carillon phrase based on the twelve-tone row of Anton Webern is played. Be aware that most of the time this piece is silent! The original composition, however, is based on a generative computer program which you can download from here: http://www.essl.at/works/webernuhrwerk/download.html It was created for commemorating the 70th anniversary of Webern's death on 15 September 2015 in a global event called "World-Wide Webern". In order to join in, you can use this recording. Start it exactly at the beginning of a full hour and let it run for 5 hours. When finished, you can repeat the piece as long as you like.
