Iannis Xénakis's Music re:composed by 4 composers, we are waiting for the others...

Iannis Xénakis was one of the first composer who used computer to break out drastically the rules of harmony with mathematics. As an architect he worked with drawn lines to compose huge masses of strings glissandi and other math lays to compose chaotic great music. But perhaps the most important what Iannis Xenakis transmit to us is the sense of architecture in music.

XX CENTURY CONTEMPORARY COMPOSERS RE:COMPOSED workshop

Only 4 composers were not scared
to re:compose for chaos Iannis Xenakis's music: why just 4?

What was XX century contemporary music? At the beginning, a free music outside formatted rules of convention, but with lot of serious and unbearable composers. An abstract and erudite music for an international elite that even couldn't understand what was going on. We never knew why most of contemporary music performance was so tedious? To loose their audience? Our workshop of XX century contemporary composers remixed is an arbitrary testimony of what should be the restart of free music, but with fun."
