Innovative work by the Siemens prize winner 2018 (the “Nobel prize” of music)

Beat Furrer’s Duo “Spazio Immergente I” (everlasting space) leads an over 2000-year-old text of visionary breadth into fascinating worlds of sound – with voice, language, and breath. The ancient poet Lucretius describes a concept of dislimitation and apocalypse, whose timelessness lends this challenging, musically innovative dialogue an incomparable urgency: “... that the walls of the universe do not suddenly flee like flames into an unfathomable void, ... and nothing, not a vestige remains – abandoned space.”
