FESTIVAL SPIRITO DEL TEMPO | TEATRI DEL SUONO D’OGGI

June, 12th – Sept. 10th 2022

Stockhausen in Milan

The role of the arts is to explore a person’s inner space; to find out how much and how intensely someone can vibrate, through sound, through what he hears, whichever it is. The arts are a means to expand a person’s inner universe.

(K. Stockhausen, On the Musical Gift, 1971)
