136 :: Friday, March 7, 2008 :: Stockhausen's STIMMUNG

Harmonia Mundi 807408 (2007)

Karlheinz Stockhausen's STIMMUNG from 1968 in an excellent new Harmonia Mundi recording and new interpretation (Copenhagen 2007) by Paul Hillier's Theatre of Voices -  Harmonia Mundi 807408 (2007)

Greg Sandow's WSJ review of this recording from September 2007 is here.

(While Stimmung is over 78 minutes long, we will be hearing the final 50 minutes)
