Wandelweiser

Wandelweiser is a contemporary music movement that emerged in Europe in the 1990s, deeply rooted in experimental and minimalist principles. Characterized by its extreme quietude and sparse textures, it focuses on the delicate interplay between sound and silence, often blurring the lines between music and ambient sounds. The works created by Wandelweiser composers and performers, such as Jürg Frey and Eva-Maria Houben, tend to be highly introspective and meditative, inviting listeners to inhabit a state of heightened sonic awareness. This genre frequently incorporates prolonged durations, subtle harmonies, and an embrace of environmental sounds, fostering a profound sense of space and time within its gentle sonic landscapes. Wandelweiser's compositions are akin to auditory paintings, with notes and rests meticulously placed like brushstrokes across a vast canvas of silence.
