Each of the four big orchestral concerts at Wien Modern 2024 invites you to leave behind the classical standards for the allocation of seats and roles between music and audience, at least for a moment. The Opening – once again in the emptied Great Hall of the Wiener Konzerthaus – will be Terretektorh, performed by 88 musicians scattered around the auditorium. The rarely played spatial composition by Iannis Xenakis has lost none of its visionary power, even 60 years after its creation. Ten years ago, John Luther Adams received the Pulitzer Prize for a hypnotic slow-motion piece on climate change. Become Ocean sends incessantly rising waves of sound through the room, rolling across the audience. The most recent work of the evening, Flux, is the first of four opportunities to get to know the winner of the Erste Bank Composition Prize 2024: Nina Šenk (photo). Not to be missed before the concert: the spectacular movable sound objects by Cod.Act at the MAK and AIL.
