Arbeitsvorhaben
The Ligeti Project
The purpose of the project is to create a website that functions as a pedagogical resource for professional pianists, teachers, students, and anyone interested in learning more about the music of the Hungarian composer György Ligeti and its performance.During the past seven years, the Klavier-Festival Ruhr, in close collaboration with Tamara Stefanovich and me, has developed an acclaimed series of educational and artistic initiatives about contemporary piano music (see www.klavierfestival.de/klaviermodern).
We now wish, over the next two years, to further develop this internationally regarded initiative with an extensive project about the piano music of György Ligeti. Central to this ambitious aim is the development of a new kind of Internet site about Ligeti's music. The development of the website will have a double aim: on the one hand, to enthuse a broad public about the music of Ligeti. On the other, to encourage pianists to immerse themselves in Ligeti's piano works and to include them in their repertoire.
J. S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier
The aim is an in-depth study of the first book of Johann Sebastian Bach's Das Wohltemperirte Clavier (1722).Recommended Listening
