Anspiel - Neue Eastman-CD - Titel, die provozieren

Amen. Kai Schumacher @ Deutschlandfunk

Julius Eastman schrieb Minimal Music, viel aggressivere und eindringlichere als seine berühmten Kollegen Philip Glass und Steve Reich. Der homosexuelle Afroamerikaner starb 1990 und hinterliess Werke wie "Evil Ni**er" oder "Gay Guerilla". Eastmans Musik passt in keine Schublade - aber unbedingt in ...

Carlos C**a
11.10.

Für viele von uns mag ein Klavier wie jedes andere klingen – für Carlos C**a hingegen eröffnet jedes einzelne Instrument ungeahnte neue Möglichkeiten. Für Correlations hat er sorgfältig verschiedenste Instrumente mit besonderem, individuellem Charakter ausgewählt: sechs Flügel, drei Pianos, ein Tafelklavier und ein Rhodes. Entstanden ist ein faszinierendes Spektrum an Miniaturen und Stimmungen, das die Grenzen zwischen Komposition, Performance und Prozess verschwimmen lässt. - Mit dem Abend im Großen Haus feiert Carlos C**a im Oktober sein einziges größeres Release-Konzert in diesem Jahr!

Janus Rasmussen's tour is postponed to 21. Stay strong.

Hi people,

Not an easy thing to do, but I guess it was to be expected in this crazy year…

After months of hoping that the Covid-19 crisis could be dealt with by fall, my team and I have decided to postpone my solo tour to spring 2021.

We will announce the new confirmed dates when we know more about the situation and are sure that it is safe for you to buy tickets.

Until then I won’t go MIA - I have been quite productive in the studio over the last couple of weeks, and there are lots of things to share.

Stay tuned!

Just a small act of solidarity from a bunch of white privileged people. But it has never felt more necessary to celebrate the music of black gay activist Julius Eastman than under the current circumstances.
Thanks to Mirela Zhulali, Benedikt ter Braak & Patti Martin for a unique experience and moers festival for making it happen.

Out Now!

"I wanted you to know (on Yamaha Upright, 1981)" is out now!⁠
⁠
The idea behind this track, a #minimalistic and repetitive structure like thoughts circling in the mind, was by far the most completed #composition concept I recorded in the context⁠ of this album. Maybe that’s why it turned out to be⁠ the most song-like piece of them all. ⁠
⁠
I hope you like it!⁠
⁠
I'll play it live from my living room later today at 5pm so feel free to tune in.

Happy release day to Carlos C**a with "I wanted you to know" 🎉 It's out now!

Sheet music ahead!

A lot of people keep asking me for the sheet music of my pieces, but I´ve always been either too lazy or too busy to write them down. At least the latter doesn´t seem to be a good excuse anymore...

So I just finished the score for "Eskalator", a piece for prepared piano, which you can download now for free on my website. But before you start practising make sure to have a felt wedge, Blu-Tack and something like toothpicks at home ;)

A little something for your Friday night from Kai Schumacher

Actually I was supposed to be on a small tour end of this month presenting my album "Rausch". When I´m on stage I always take the chance to tell the audience a little bit about the different preparations I´m using for my pieces. So I thought it could be a nice idea to shoot a live video of my piece "Eskalator", where you can have a closer look inside the piano and see how it all works. Hope you enjoy!

And if you didn´t check out "Rausch" so far - you´ll probably have enough time in the next few weeks :)
