Conflicts in contemporary music interpretation. Brunner-Lachenmann: a case approach

Abstract

Classical musicians have made a habit of reproducing again and again works written between two hundred and one hundred years ago. We even insist on calling to works written fifty to seventy five years ago contemporary music. Through their reflections on society, art and artists face doubts, conflicts, certainties and uncertainties better and faster than any other social influencing field. However they must be updated to the music produced at the time they live; then society can interact in art and performers could interact with composers. The second part consists of a case study in order to better picture the challenge involved in creating something from the very starting point, from the very genesis, surrounded by all its authenticity.
