“Moscow Symphony” for string orchestra
Musicians of the ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra in Vienna are playing under the direction of Michael Mautner

“the music composed for the theatre of orgies and mysteries is developing more and more in the direction of celestial sounds. cosmic roaring of the emergence of galaxies is intended. my music consists primarily of layers of sustained complexes of tones. michael mautner has developed a symphony for a string orchestra from the score of my first string quartet. this symphony was successfully premiered on the occasion of the 8th biennial of contemporary art in moscow.” HERMANN NITSCH

In the chapel of the exhibition structure, the Acoustics Research Institute at the Austrian Academy of Sciences is implementing a large-scale projection of the music of Hermann Nitsch. The Akusmonautikum in Vienna is making the sound reproduction of this music possible.
