MUSIK-KONZEPTE 199: Georg Friedrich Haas
Der Komponist Georg Friedrich Haas (*1953) will als ein politischer Mensch verstanden werden. Sein von der Kritik als ausdrucksstark und wirkungsmächtig gewürdigtes Schaffen ist von einem hohen humanistischen Ethos getragen.

Zugleich zeugen sie von einer so raffinierten wie fantasiereichen Technik, die sich nicht im Begriff der Mikrotonalität erschöpft. Die Autorinnen und Autoren des Bandes stellen sich der Frage, wie sich Ausdruck und Konstruktion in der Musik von Haas wechselseitig bedingen und durchdringen. Mit Beiträgen von Barbara Barthelmes, Daniel Ender, Bernhard Günther, Jim Igor Kallenberg, George E. Lewis, Thomas Meyer und Gesine Schröder.

What does a one hour contemporary orchestral piece by Georg Friedrich Haas have in common with a series of glitch-noise electronic tracks by Pan Sonic? This book proposes that, despite their differences, they share a particular understanding of sound that is found across several quite distinct genres of contemporary art music: the ecstatic-materialist perspective. Sound in the ecstatic-materialist perspective is considered as a material mass or element, unfolding in time, encountered by a listener, for whom the experience of that sound exceeds the purely sonic without becoming entirely divorced from its materiality. It is "material" by virtue of the focus on the texture, consistency, and den...
