Annäherung

This volume brings together over three decades of writings, reflections, conversations and texts by Peter Ablinger. In aphoristic essays, poetic sketches and analytical notations, a way of thinking unfolds that places listening itself at the center of art. Themes such as noise, language, writing, perception, repetition and conventionality run through Ablinger's texts, as does his engagement with philosophy, the visual arts and literature. The extensive collection also offers texts on central compositions(Weiss/Weisslich, Opera/Werke, Stadtoper Graz and many more) and makes it clear how closely music, language and thought are interwoven in Ablinger's work. A key book on one of the most original minds in contemporary music.
