New Music

An interdisciplinary volume on Salvatore Sciarrino's composition Vanitas —with musicological, literary, and art-historical approaches to the aesthetics of transience.

This analysis examines Hans-Joachim Hespos’ compositional strategies—which navigate the tension between excessive demands, theatricality, and notation—and demonstrates how his works deliberately engage with ambiguities in interpretation and reception.

A multifaceted musical aesthetic that understands music as an autonomous form of expression with its own cognitive quality. For anyone who wants to understand music more deeply.
