More info: www.zweimannorchester.net vernissage.tv German-Argentine composer Mauricio Kagel's Zwei-Mann-Orchester (Two-Man Orchestra) for two one-man orchestras is considered as one of the strangest pieces of contemporary music every composed. The sound is created by using more than 200 broken, battered and discarded instruments and dysfunctional sound-generators. After its premiere in 1973, it is now produced for the third time and performed in the Museum Tinguely in Basel by Wilhelm Bruck and Matthias Würsch. This video documents the presentation on April 23, 2011. Photo set and full-length video (for VernissageTV Members): vernissage.tv Mauricio Kagel's Zwei-Mann-Orchester premièred at the Donaueschingen Festival in 1973. Kagel and his musicians, Wilhelm Bruck and Theodor Ross, surprised their audience with large apparatus composed of more than 200 "instruments". They were played with the aid of strings, rods, levers and other movable elements. "The traditional instrumental body of the renowned festival that had commissioned the work -- the orchestra -- was reflected in a caricature raised to the level of sound-art" (excerpt from the press release). In 1992, the Zwei-Mann-Orchester was presented in a second version at the Kassel Documenta IX. Now, almost twenty years later, it is produced for the third ...

We were able to reach Mr. Kagel while students at Yale: He sent a note saying "Thank you very very much for your extraordinary DVD with the performance of Dressur. I find this a overwhelming production with perfect tempi and most dedicated musicians. One of the points which strike me at most is that this performance was done without my help, but only with and exact interpretation, which is fixed in the score." Thank you Mr. Kagel. We are thinking of you!

Kagel's piano etude "An Tasten" (1977), with the score, performed excellently by Bruno Canino. The work is a study in mostly major, minor, diminished and augmented chords in root position and their inversions, and is also a kind of parody of the musician practicing his/her instrument.

Mauricio Kagel (1931-2008): Music for Renaissance Instruments (1965/1966). Collegium instrumentale diretto da Mauricio Kagel. Cover image: painting by Gerhard Richter. "This work contains neither prediction, pointers to the future, nor a comforting return to the past: the use of Renaissance instruments here has no programmatic purpose in any general sense. The only decisive fact is that these instruments correspond to my tonal concept better than any present-day stringed and wind instruments could. The systematic alienation of conventional instrumental sound, which comes into its own in the material and methods of the most modem music, seemed to me to justify an attempt, for once, to reverse the normally accepted view on the subject of the composition of tone colour. The individual quality of restraint which belongs to the nature of these Renaissance instruments made it all the easier for me to introduce each of them in its own unadulterated tonal character. While still a student of musicology in Argentina I began to sketch a similar piece, but I dropped the project at that time, since one of the essential conditions for bringing the idea to fruition-the formation of a truly orchestral ensemble of early instruments-could not then be fulfilled. In the renaissance of the Renaissance which we are now experiencing such an ensemble has become feasible, because copies of most of the instruments have recently been made, and numerous musicians have become proficient in playing ...

Mauricio Kagel (1931-2008): Anagrama, for four soloists, speaking chorus, and chamber ensemble (1957/1958). Ensemble vocale e strumentale diretto da Mauricio Kagel. Cover image: painting by Gerhard Richter. The composition "Anagrama" for four solo voices, speaking chorus, and instruments, written between February 1957 and November 1958, after preparatory work in Argentina, was given its first performance at the ICMS Festival in Cologne on nth June 1960. Nearly all the speech elements and sounds are derived from the palindrome on gnats and moths (wrongly attributed to Dante): In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni (we circle in the night and are consumed by fire), whose completely symmetrical structure is the equivalent of Webern's late twelve-tone rows. This is not a superficial comparison, for this piece, constructed in five sections and in three levels, represents no less than an attempt to match in vocal music the standard of synthetic sound differentiation based on Webern's work achieved in electronic music of that period. Of course, "Anagrama" at the same time also has its sources in completely different worlds, above all in Romanic- Manneristic Surrealism, but also in the Romantic-Universalistic spirit, which was obsessed with the idea that everything was connected with everything else. Kagel uses German, French, Italian, and Spanish; Latin is reserved for the palindrome, whose vocabulary of sounds (i, n, g, r, u, m, s, o, c, t, e) is extended by transposing the ...

Soon after May 1968, Mauricio Kagel, an Argentinian musician, launched himself into film making. Ludwig van is the first of his productions. The black and white film is intentionally dislodged, disturbed, disrespectful, even aggressive. Here, there is no story. The film is constituted of a series of scenes, without connection between them. At the start we are in the presence of a half deaf Beethoven, represented in a subjective way, so that the spectator becomes the composer. Thus we tour the places where Beethoven lived: his desk, covered entirely with pieces of music; his cellar, storeroom filled with bottles of wine; his hay loft, where he stacks the scores of composers of the XIX and XX centuries; his bathroom, in which the bathtub is full of busts of... Beethoven, which we take one after the other. The tone is striking: not a documentary reportage, not a biographical film or anecdote, Kagel provokes us, takes us by surprise, irritates us. There are many other scenes, which cover subjects such as the hearing of the composer, the analysis of his skull, the course of musical television, the analysis of the texts of Beethoven (notably his conversation notebooks), etc. The film ends at the zoo, by the scenes presenting the animals in the most stupid attitudes possible, indeed even scatological. The music of Beethoven is reviewed with talent by Mauricio Kagel. Text from: www.lvbeethoven.com REMEMBER: a. I don´t own the rights of this film b. I don´t have the complete film ...

German-Argentine composer Mauricio Kagel is one of the most intriguing composers of the 20th century. Many of his diverse works contain undercurrents of surrealism and anarchism in an effort to shed light on—and often confront—the musical tradition. His film Ludwig Van refashions Beethoven scores as furniture; his chamber work Der Schall employs cash registers and household appliances as its main instruments; and in his opera Staatstheater, members of the chorus perform overlapping solos, soloists sing in a chorus, and non-dancers present a ballet. The half-hour percussion trio Dressur (1977) is rooted in Kagel's concern for how audio recordings have altered the tradition of audience experience. "In the 19th century people still enjoyed music with their eyes as well, with all their senses," Kagel has expressed. "Only with the increasing dominance of the mechanical reproduction of music, through broadcast and records, was this reduced to the purely acoustical dimension. What I want is to bring the audience back to an enjoyment of music with all senses. That's why my music is a direct, exaggerated protest against the mechanical reproduction of music." Like many of the other works in Kagel's "instrumental theater" idiom, Dressur therefore combines the visual element with the auditory, the theatrical with the musical. Using over 50 instruments and non-instruments, Kagel creates sound out of theater (such as when a percussionist slams a chair on the ground several times), and ...
