Karlheinz Stockhausen
Prozession
Philips (Japan) 196x
SFL-8597 (LP) Promotional copy, White label.
sleeve : VG+(SOC, some wear on edge and corner, dirts.)
media : EX+/EX+(some slightly noise.)
Starting from typical serialism and moving through group composition, moment form, and formula technique, while also leaving behind a substantial body of live electronics works, Karlheinz Stockhausen stands as one of Germany’s most important figures in contemporary music. This album, released in 1968, features Prozession, which premiered in Helsinki, Finland, in 1967. The performance employs an Electronium non-sine-wave generator alongside piano, tam-tam, and viola, with two microphones attached to the tam-tam and viola routed through filters and potentiometers operated by Stockhausen himself, then projected through speakers placed around all four sides of the hall. The fiercely angular sounds scattering across the space remain absolutely astonishing even today. This copy is most likely the first Japanese pressing, believed to have been issued in the late 1960s.
