Cues / Hinweise

This collection brings together texts, conversations, essays and work notes written over decades by the composer Christian Wolff - one of the most radical thinkers in experimental music of the 20th and 21st centuries. With impressive clarity, Wolff reflects on artistic freedom, political responsibility, forms of musical openness and the practice of composing in the field of tension between tradition and utopia. It is about improvisation, electricity, notation, listening, about Cage, Cardew, Rzewski, Feldman and many others, but above all about an attitude: music as social action.
