Karlheinz Stockhausen

*2022 Stock.* This is a 2 CD presentation of a new recording of Momente from 1998. Momente has a "mobile-form", which means that the individual segments can be rearranged from performance to performance (typically pre-arranged at the conductor's discretion). Therefore this version is again unique from the 1965 and 1972 versions of Momente found on The Stockhausen Edition no. 7. Like the 1965 version, it does start with the "clapping" sequence, but in this performance the transition from "audience applause" to "performer applause" is more organic (the 1972 version started with the "processional" sequence). This modern recording features soprano soloist Angela Tunstall, the WDR Cologne choir, Antonio Pérez Abellán and Massimiliano Viel (synths) and members of MusikFabrik, conducted by Rupert Huber. - Stockhausenspace.blogspot.com
