9 DÜFTE DER WOCHE
9 SCENTS OF THE WEEK (2002)
(from SCENTS – SIGNS of SUNDAY from LIGHT)
for 7 vocalists, boy’s voice, synthesizer
[56’00]

Interpreters:
Isolde Siebert (high soprano), Ksenija Lukic (soprano),
Susanne Otto (alto),
Hubert Mayer (high tenor), Bernhard Gärtner (tenor),
Jonathan de la Paz Zaens (baritone), Nicholas Isherwood (bass), Sebastian Kunz (boy’s voice),
Antonio Pérez Abellán (synthesizer),
K. Stockhausen (musical direction and sound projection)

In the booklet of CD 69, DÜFTE – ZEICHEN (duration: 58 minutes), there are comprehensive explanations about
the scents and signs of LIGHT as well as the sung text (which is a mixture of German and English) in its entirety
and numerous photographs. On that CD, all of the aleatoric moments are sung – as in a performance – between and
during the parts of the score.

In CD 70, the aleatoric moments have been omitted, so that the soli, duets and the trio may be heard by themselves,
separated by pauses. They may also be performed individually in this way. This CD is therefore especially suited for
rehearsals, broadcasts, lessons, for studying with the score, and for shorter listening periods.
