description
Reedycja • The Ensemble 13 is an ensemble from Baden-Baden specializing in contemporary music. It was formed by members of the Baden Chamber Orchestra in 1973 and founded by Manfred Reichert. The ensemble went on to present regular guest performances at renowned festivals of contemporary music such as the Dresden Days of Contemporary Music. It is now our pleasure to rerelease its interpretation of the work Thirteen by John Cage from 1993. Thirteen was composed for four woodwind instrumentalists, three brass instrumentalists, two percussionists, and four string players. The work belongs to the group of so-called »number pieces« that Cage began in 1987 and whose titles in each case indicate the number of participants. It is notated in individual voices; a score does not exist. Cage himself merely wrote words to this effect about the individual parts: »Flexible time brackets, within which the tones are to be played.« This CD presents the work in two versions. An interesting experiment!
