Episode Synopsis

Send us a textAfter the summer break, we return with composer Ludger Brümmer (Werne, 1958) as the guest of the first episode of the 2025/26 season. Like many composers, Brümmer cannot resist speaking about music — yet he does so in a uniquely compelling way. The former director of ZKM shares insights into his approach to sound: the role of structure and intuition, space as narrative and as a field for exploration, as well as the possibilities of physical modelling. In this episode, we are invited to immerse ourselves in his sonic universe and the ideas that shape itcredits: La cloche sans vallees [1992], acousmatic composition // The gates of H.
