Three late works by Luigi Nono, from the years when he was redefining what listening could mean. A Carlo Scarpa architetto, ai suoi infiniti possibili (1984) is a memorial for the Venetian architect, built on two notes and their microtonal shadows. A Pierre. Dell'azzurro silenzio, inquietum (1985), written for Pierre Boulez's sixtieth birthday, sets contrabass flute and contrabass clarinet inside live electronics, sound always on the edge of breath. Guai ai gelidi mostri (1983), on texts assembled by Massimo Cacciari, takes up the whole second side.
The recordings were made with the Experimentalstudio of the SWF in Freiburg, led by Hans Peter Haller, the place where Nono's late electronic thinking took shape. Issued in 1990 by Edition RZ with the DAAD Berliner Künstlerprogramm, with notes by Nono, Cacciari and Haller and a Nicolaus Ott and Bernard Stein design.
