Ensemble for Experimental Music of the Ghent Royal Conservatory Christian WOLFF "Changing the system" (1973) Christian Wolff can be considered to be one of the rare and small group of composers giving serious consideration to the inner politics of the ensembles wherefor he writes. There is no conductor, no hidden hierarchy in the ensemble. The score is not prescriptive in an authoritarian way, but rather tries to reveal the typical inner workings of ensembles performing chamber music. As many pieces from the same period, this piece tries to redefine the notion of composition from a linear series of prescriptions and recipes to a rather game like and rule based system.  This approach may well become visionary for a type of contemporary music practice  to come. To quote the composer: "To turn the making of music into a collaborative and transforming activity (performer into composer into listener into composer into performer etc...), the co-operative character of the activity to be the exact source of the music. To stir up

Interview by Jason Gross (April 1998). In the 1950's,there was a group of composers who set the classical world on edge. http://www.furious.com/perfect/christianwolff.html

CHRISTIAN WOLFF Interview by Jason Gross (April 1998) Praise be to Christian Marclay for helping with this. PSF: You were originally studying with John Cage. What kind of effect do you think that had on your work? All kinds of effect! (laughs) Practically, he was my first and only composition teacher. He taught me a handful of practical things and then he basically let me go ahead on my own. Our lessons lasted for about six weeks. He taught me about rhythmic structure, Webern, did some counterpoint exercises and that was it basically. After that, I was doing my own pieces. I would make up my own systems for my pieces and he figured that was good enough. I didn't have to go on with counterpoint or other peoples' systems as long as I knew systems and knew how to work with it. That was the point. PSF: Did you find shortcomings with counter point? To tell the truth, I wasn't very good at it and he wasn't very interested. That's somewhat ironic because over the last ten years, I've become very interested in it and I've used it all the time in one form or another. PSF: At that time when you began, Cage as well as David Tudor, Morton Feldman and Earle Brown were all active as well. All of you were seen together as a musical movement. Did you see similarities there or mostly differences in styles?

christian wolff Sospeso presents the world premiere of Christian Wolff's Exercise 28 at the July 19 Lincoln Center Festival 2000 theremin concert with grand thereminist Lydia Kavina The French-born American musician Christian Wolff came to prominence in the 1950s as an associate of John Cage, Morton Feldman, Earle Brown and the other American experimentalists of that period, later working with Cornelius Cardew and Frederic Rzewski. His work has gone through many transformations, including minimalism (the early 1950s), indeterminancy, open form and works connected with political issues. Born March 8, 1934 in Nice, France, Mr. Wolff has lived mainly in the U.S. since 1941; he became an American citizen in 1946. He studied piano with Grete Sultan and composition (briefly) with John Cage , but he describes himself as an autodidact. It was early contact with Cage, Morton Feldman, David Tudor and Earle Brown—and, later, Cornelius Cardew and Frederic Rzewski—that helped form the direction of his work. His academic training in classics and comparative literature at Harvard University lead him to professorships in classics at Harvard and, since 1971, at Dartmouth College, where he also teaches comparative literature and music.

The charge led, via intricate byways on which the King of Prussia was to be found, to Wolff's summary dismissal from Halle, though he was later vindicated. It appears that Wolff never considered himself to be outside the fold. 6. Scientific Disciplines

The works on this disc, volume 3 of Mode’s Christian Wolff Edition, belong to his minimalist, and open-form, styles. The Tilbury pieces (1969–70) are named for the pianist John Tilbury, whom Wolff had recently met at that time. Snowdrop (1970), from the same period, was named for the snowdrops among the earliest Spring flowers found in the Vermont countryside where Wolff lives. They attempt to integrate a systematic way of writing with chance and the excitement of early minimalism from Riley, Glass and Reich along with their English counterparts Hobbs, Smith, Nyman and White. A reaction against Serialism, their sound motifs come in fixed cycles, now and again two or more sounds appear at the same time, coincide and collide, making chords. Tilbury 5 was written 25 years later at the request of the performers Dahinden, Kleeb and Polisoidis to extend the

document.write(""); WOLFF, CHRISTIAN WOLFF, C.—WOLFF, J. graduated in medicine at Halle in 1759, his thesis being his famous Theoria generationis. After serving as a surgeon in the Seven Years' War, he wished to lecture on anatomy and physiology in Berlin, but being refused permission he accepted a call from the empress Catharine to become professor of those subjects at the academy of St Petersburg, and acted in this capacity until his death there in 1794. While the theory of " evolution " in the crude sense—-i.e. a simple growth in size and" unfolding of organs all previously existent in the germ—was in possession of the field, his researches on the development of the alimentary canal in the chick first clearly established the converse view, that of epigenesis, i.e. of progressive formation and differentiation of organs from a germ primitively homogeneous. He also largely anticipated the modern conception of embryonic layers, and is said even to have foreshadowed the cell theory. The Wolffian philosophy held almost undisputed sway in Germany till it was displaced by the Kantian revolution. It is essentially a common-sense adaptation or watering-down of the Leibnitzian system; or, as we can hardly speak of a system in connexion with Leibnitz, Wolff may be said to have methodized and reduced to dogmatic form the thoughts of his great predecessor, which often, however, lose the greater part of their suggestiveness in the process. Since his philosophy disappeared before the influx of new ideas and the appearance of more speculative minds, it has been customary to dwell almost exclusively on its defects—the want of depth or fresh-

Born March 8, 1934 in Nice, France; lived mostly in U.S. since 1941; U.S. citizen since 1946. Studied piano with Grete Sultan, composition (briefly) with John Cage. Mostly autodidact, but early contact with Cage, Morton Feldman, David Tudor and Earle Brown, later Cornelius Cardew and Frederic Rzewski has helped form the direction of his work. Academic training in Classics and Comparative Literature at Harvard University. Has taught Classics at Harvard and, since 1971, Classics, Comparative Literature and Music at Dartmouth College (Hanover, New Hampshire). Compositions include works for piano(s), miscellaneous keyboards, instrumental solos, chamber groups, unspecified groups of players and sound sources, tape, chorus and orchestra. A particular interest in Wolff's work has been to allow performers flexibility and ranges of freedom at the actual time of a piece's performance; to devise notations to make this practicable; to foster among both professional and lay players a spirit of liberating interdependence; and to draw material from traditions of popular political music. Christian Wolff has performed as an improviser with Takehisa Kosugi, Steve Lacy, Christian Marclay, Kui Dong and Larry Polansky.

34. 18th Century German Philosophy Prior To Kant Survey of work of, among others, christian Thomasius and christian wolff; by Brigitte Sassen. http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/18thGerman-preKant/

version history HOW TO CITE THIS ENTRY Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy A B C D ... Z content revised MAR 18th Century German Philosophy Prior to Kant In Germany, the eighteenth century was the age of enlightenment, the age, that is, that called for the independence of reason. Although the ethos of this age found its clearest (and certainly its most famous) articulation towards the end of the century with Immanuel Kant and his critical philosophy, he was not the first to issue this call. Instead, that task fell to Christian Thomasius (Thomas) at the end of the seventeenth century. It was then taken up and further developed in a theological (pietist) direction by a number of minor figures, the Thomasians, and reissued in a rationalist direction in the early and middle part of the eighteenth century by Christian Wolff and his followers. The development of their position(s) as well as their philosophical (dis)agreements took place by and large at the University of Halle and against the context of pietism.

The Boston Phoenix November 13 - 20, 1997 clubs by night bands in town club directory pop concerts ... hot links **** Earle Brown, John Cage, Morton Feldman, Christian Wolff THE NEW YORK SCHOOL 3 (hat Art) The Swiss record label hat Art continues to release an essential series of New Music recordings, focusing largely on the American composers known as the New York School. This compilation, third in a series, is perhaps the most engaging and instructive of all: pieces by Brown, Wolff, and Cage are played twice each, so as to dramatize the nature of indeterminate composition. Performances of the same piece are not grouped together: the CD goes through them once and then again in reverse order. At the center of this musical palindrome is a dramatic reading of an entertaining and informative essay by Morton Feldman, in which he explains the '50s: "For one brief moment maybe, say, six weeks nobody understood art. That's why it all happened. . . . But there's no place now where you can hide out for six weeks." Hat Art is trying, one hour at a time.
