BBC Prom 11, Season 2013: Stockhausen

Ex Cathedra and Jeffrey Skidmore live at the BBC Proms with the London premiere of one of Stockhausen's most remarkable choral works.

Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Louise Fryer

Louise Fryer introduces a concert of music by one of the 20th century's most provocative, revolutionary composers. Gesang der Jünglinge (Song of the Youths) dates from the mid 1950s and is generally hailed as Stockhausen's first electronic masterpiece, a mind-popping sonic translation of the biblical story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, realised live tonight by Kathinka Pasveer who worked closely with the composer for over two decades. Welt-Parlament (World Parliament) was composed 30 years later and is a multi-lingual, virtuosic piece of choral writing for 37 singers, who form a futuristic world parliament discussing the theme of love. It receives its London premiere at the hands of Ex Cathedra and their director Jeffrey Skidmore, who promises listeners "an incredible spiritual feeling" by the end of this dazzling, demanding and hugely complex work.
