The
Tanzsuite mit
Deutschlandlied (Dance
Suite with German
National Anthem) was
premiered in 1980 at the
Donaueschingen Festival
under the direction of
Sylvain Cambreling. 35
years later, we have now
filmed the piece, once
again conducted by
Cambreling, with the
Staatsorchester Stuttgart
and the Arditti Quartet.
Sectional rehearsals with
Helmut Lachenmann did not
take place, but the
approximately eight hours
of orchestra rehearsals
also provided much
graphic material for the
two rehearsal films. In
the interview film, the
composer goes into detail
about, for example, the
structure of the piece in
which he has dealt with a
variety of dances and
German Folk Songs.
Lachenmann's pre-concert
speech, preparing the
audience for the
performance of the
Tanzsuite, gives a
special accent to the
DVD. (Wiebke
Popel)
In 2015/16
I travelled across Europe
with cameraman Michael
Zimmer to document a
total of nine orchestral
rehearsals of and with
[meaning rehearsals of
music by HL, conducted by
HL? OR?] Helmut
Lachenmann in the course
of Lachenmann
Perspectives, a project
of the Musik der
Jahrhunderte. This DVD
series is the filmic
result of these
journeys.
