Angewandte
Interdisciplinary Lab
A musical dialogue between the works of living composers from the 21st and renowned
composers from the 20th century.
This evening with 12TON is curated by Schayan Kazemi. A Cooperation with Punctum Collective
12TON is a concert series for new music that was launched in the fall of 2020 on the Brick-5 area in Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus.
The starting point of their series ‘Dialogues for Generations’ refers to works by composers of the 20th and 21st century.
The primary aim is to create a musical dialogue between the works of living composers from the 21st century and renowned composers
from the 20th century.
In this edition of Sonoric Reflections – 12TON,
the concept has been made more open. The curatorial selection includes composers from the 20th and 21st centuries. Contemporary
representatives such as Manu Mayr, Christoph Herndler or Stefan Fraunberger are featured alongside Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928–2007),
Earle Brown (1926–2002) and Anestis Logothetis (1921–1994).
The idea is to build a bridge between the generations from
a musical and characteristic point of view and at the same time to establish commonalities and contrasts within the broad
field of contemporary music.

In the former cashier hall at Otto Wagner-Postsparkasse a continuous
echo of sound waves are given by the special architecture of the arched ceiling. This creates acoustic reflections in all
dimensions. With Sonoric Reflections, AIL invites established concert series and collectives to explore this space as a body
of sound and experience.
