Performed by the Ligeti Quartet in Cambridge, 7/6/19

CLICKBAIT is about the internet. It’s about information overload (i.e. too many things happening too quickly) and the effects of digital media on the ways we think. It’s about attention span, the feeling of constantly shifting your gaze from one object to another in an environment of rapid disorientation, and the delicate, fleeting moments of calm introspection that exist in the liminal spaces. It’s about whether four musicians are able, despite continually being distracted, to focus on one thing.

CLICKBAIT

"Heroes" from the cycle "Für uns. Für uns" by Hannes Seidl, in an interpretation by Anne van de Star and David Helbich

Hannes wrote scores for people playing together at home. Perfect for Corona times. 

The songs are based on pop songs, this one on a song by David Bowie. 

The score only mentions piano and voice. The heavy pedal usage inspired us to make a very reverby version with an e-git and an Oud replacing the grand piano (I got a bed instead...). 
The added  electronics are (most unfortunately) hiding our amazing singing talents. 

The score of the whole cycle is available here: editionjulianeklein.de

Or have a look at the score of only "Heroes" here: https://archive.org/details/fuer-uns-fuer-uns_heroes

Hannes' own interpretation together with singer-composer Julia Mihály
