"Knots and Fields" (NYC Premiere)
NYC Premiere of the documentary "Knots and Fields" by filmmakers Andrew Chesher and David Ryan. Since 2008, both British artists Andrew Chesher and David Ryan have intensely worked with interview and archive material on their film about the Darmstadt Summer Course. "Knots and Fields" documents the history and present activity of this important institution, which Darmstadt "Classics of the Avant-Garde" has taken inspiration from since the beginning. The International Summer Course for New Music was brought to life immediately after the end of the World War II, 1946, and became one of the most important centers for the music of our time. Olivier Messiaen, Edgar Varèse, Luciano Berio, Pierre Boulez, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Luigi Nono, Iannis Xenakis, Brian Ferneyhough, Helmut Lachenmann and Wolfgang Rihm are just a few of the legendary faculty who have taught at Darmstadt.
