Résumé :
|
There's no composer quite like Iannis Xenakis, who died in 2001. A pioneer of electronic music, a musical and mathematical visionary who invented ways of mapping scientific processes on to musical composition, he created some of the most defiantly individual music ever written, connecting the worlds of ancient Greek philosophy with contemporary composition. The South Bank's weekend-long celebration of his music, Architect in Sound, was a thrilling experience - an explosion of astonishing virtuosity and sonic power that was as exhilarating and overwhelming as a force of nature.
