Per Nørgård's Lila for Chamber Ensemble.The composer writes of his work: Lila is a Sanskrit word for playing with the elements and I chose it as the title of the chamber work I composed in 1972 because its coolly systematic play (with overtones and undertones in the infinity sequences and a spectrum of Golden Sections in the rhythms) is characteristic of the period just before I wrote my Third Symphony (1973-75).The work was given its first performance in Venice in the Teatro La Fenice on 9th September 1972 alongside Kagel’s Anagram from which Lila borrowed its instrumentation since it wascommissioned for a first performance by the Prisma Ensemble along with Anagram with Tamas Vetö to whom it is dedicated conducting. Ensemble: 4 percussionists (gong 3 tam-tams crotales glockenspiel tubular bells celesta vibraphone xylophone) 2 pianos 2 harps flute (as well as flute in G and piccolo) B flat clarinet (and bass clarinet).
