*2022 Stock.* Strahlen is an arrangement of Hoch-Zeiten's choir part for tuned percussion (manipulated through signal processing). In a live performance presented here, a percussionist (vibraphone) performs to a tape containing the other 9 complementary layers. These effervescent layers are organized as slowly changing, static harmonies - but with very active inner vibrations. This is a very aurally-appealing piece (from a more conservative viewpoint, perhaps), but its shimmering surface belies a complex fabric of melody and articulation. The electronic music (from Stockhausen's score) was created by ZKM (Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe), Institute for Music and Acoustics, with major contributions from Ludger Brümmer, Götz Dipper and Holger Stenschke.
