SELTEN GEHORTE MUSIK	Das Berliner Konzert	2CD	TOCHNIT ALEPH	TA 172CD
$27.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 6/6/2025 Performed at Kirche zum Heiligen Kreuz, Berlin (Kreuzberg) on 27th September 1974 by the incredible all-star line-up of Dieter Roth, Gerhard Rühm, Oswald Wiener, Hermann Nitsch, Günter Brus, Attersee, Arnulf Rainer and Dominik Steiger. Two CDs, full-color 12" LP gatefold sleeve, printed inner sleeve, two A3 size posters. Includes previously unpublished archival photos and artworks. Das Berliner Konzert was first published by Hansjörg Mayer, Studio Morra & Pari e Dispari in 1977 as a 3LP Box. This is part six in the Selten Gehörte Musik reissue series, curated and produced by Daniel Löwenbrück/Tochnit Aleph. "Stimulated by our first public performance of 'rarely heard music' (Das Münchner Konzert), we at once planned another concert in which the tight circle of performers was to be enlarged by a couple of dear friends, and once again the location had to have the lure of the special. Oswald Wiener suggested the church of the holy cross in berlin as our place of action, for we had learnt that it could be hired for public performances. everyone was most enthusiastic about playing a venue like that, and so 'rarely heard music' came to be performed on 27 September 1974 on a grand scale before a large audience. The participants this time were Attersee, Günter Brus, Hermann Nitsch, Dieter Roth, Gerhard Rühm, Dominik Steiger, Oswald Wiener, and Arnulf Rainer, who contributed to the performance as silent face-puller and contortionist. Not only did the event assume almost monumental dimensions in terms of outlay, preparations, resonance and duration, at times it rose to unbridled, almost ecstatic climaxes; at one point Brus, who had been manically blowing the one and same note into a kind of alphorn, even momentarily lost consciousness." -Gerhard Rühm "Über Selten Gehörte Musik"

SELTEN GEHORTE MUSIK	Streichquartett 558171 (Romenthalquartett)	2CD	TOCHNIT ALEPH	TA 137CD
$28.50 IN STOCK Edition of 500 copies. Fourth part in the Selten Gehörte Musik reissue series. Two CD's packaged in illustrated 12" LP gatefold-sleeve. "The next "Rarely Heard Music" production was staged once again in a private setting: at Hermann Nitsch's Villa Romenthal by Lake Ammer on 12th February 1975: the Streichquartett 558171 (Romenthalquartett) with Günter Brus, Hermann Nitsch, Dieter Roth and Gerhard Rühm, which filled all of a three album boxed set. Originally we had simply made a selection of the recorded material large enough to fill a single album, Roth was unable to part with the remaining material when it came to having the records pressed. The remorseless inclusion of even the failures, the idle moments, was so radical it almost bordered on masochism. In this particular case I felt it was an ascetic exercise in dispensing with all the correction and rectification, a ban on holding anything back. Simultaneously, Roth's often hard school of total acceptance had a stimulating and in some ways liberating effect on me, mindful as I normally am of formal rigor and economy of means" - Gerhard Rühm. Apart from the group session this edition also includes a duo piano session by Dieter Roth and Hermann Nitsch recorded in Stuttgart, November 1975.
