Stockhausen's Cosmic Pulses

The latest in new music: Tom Service presents sounds ranging tonight from the vast electronics of Stockhausen's Cosmic Pulses at the Royal Albert to music for a single clarinet.

Tom Service presents the latest sounds in new music ranging tonight from music for a single clarinet to the exigencies of the modern symphony and electronics as heard at last October's Donaueschingen Music Days. And, in 'Proms Premieres,' Tom revisits the unforgettable night in 2008 when Karl Heinz Stockhausen's Cosmic Pulses left the Proms audience gasping and bewildered. One critic wrote: "As rumbling and splintering noises ricocheted around the Albert Hall, it felt as if Stockhausen had dropped a microphone into deepest space."
