Five works by Georg Friedrich Haas will be performed at the Bludenzer Tage zeitgemäßer Musik [Bludenz contemporary music days], four of which will be performed by the ensemble recherche. The festival runs from 20 to 23 November.

Georg Friedrich Haas on his various versions of „... aus freier Lust ... verbunden ...”:

Each of the work’s ten individual parts is simultaneously a solo piece; to state it differently, the ensemble piece is an interlacing of ten completely independent, autonomous solos. […] As regards pitch, the parts are bound together by an identical harmonic structure, although it is to be noted that in the solo parts “harmony” is thought of primarily as the effect of successive sound events. As for form, caesuras and units are formed in each individual part, not only independently of other instruments, but also simultaneously with them (as a sort of “solidarity”).
