Original 1973 edition on DGG of the brilliant 1967 live-electronic masterpiece for piano, tam-tam, synthesizers and electronics. Essential.

condition (record/cover): NM / EX- (tag removal residue on front)

Prozession (1967) is a score made of plus, minus and equal signs: the players draw on their memories of earlier Stockhausen pieces and transform them according to these instructions, reacting to one another. This is the 1971 version, by Karlheinz Stockhausen's live electronic group, with Aloys Kontarsky on piano, Peter Eötvös on electrochord and the composer himself on filters and potentiometers.

The performance runs continuously across both sides, a slow procession of sounds that grow, mutate and swallow each other. Released by Deutsche Grammophon in 1975, with English notes translated by Hugh Davies.
