Karlheinz Stockhausen - Kontra-Punkte, Nr.1, for 10 instruments (1953) Ensemble Linea Conductor - Jean-Philippe Wurtz Kontra-Punkte (Counter-Points, or Against-Points) is a composition for ten instruments by Karlheinz Stockhausen which resolves contrasts among six instrumental timbres, as well as extremes of note values and dynamic levels, into a homogeneous ending texture. Stockhausen described it: “Counter-Points: a series of the most concealed and also the most conspicuous transformations and renewals—with no predictable end. The same thing is never heard twice. Yet there is a distinct feeling of never falling out of an unmistakable construction of the utmost homogeneity. An underlying force that holds things together—related proportions: a structure. Not the same Gestalten in a changing light. But rather this: various Gestalten in the same light, that permeates everything.“ Join the Score Video Creator Discord Server: PATREON - Pay a small monthly fee and gain access to my online score library, full of rare scores that I have used in videos - PAYPAL - Donations of any amount welcome! -
