Reinhold Friedl
and his
zeitkratzer
ensemble perform Friedl's
Kore
, an homage to Greek-French composer
Iannis Xenakis
. A natural advancement of Friedl's composition
Xenakis [A]Live!
, released in 2007 by Asphodel,
Kore
was conceived for nine amplified instruments, demonstrating zeitkratzer's well-established tradition of instrumental amplification (e.g. its early collaborations with
Zbigniew Karkowski
and
Merzbow
and its 2010s collaborations with
William Bennett
of
Whitehouse
(including ZKR 017CD/KR 019LP, 2014)) in which amplification not only makes things louder but also offers a microscopic perspective on sound that situates acoustic microsounds in a completely new context. References to seminal Xenakis tape compositions like
Persepolis
and
La Légende d'Eer
are audible in the materials, textures, densities, and sound masses performed by zeitkratzer, with a physical quality that creates a huge sonic architecture. Recorded live in January 2013 during the klub katarakt festival in Hamburg,
Kore
adds a stunning chapter to zeitkratzer's audacious catalog and a new sort of intensity to contemporary chamber music. This zeitkratzer lineup includes
Frank Gratkowski
, winner of the German SWR Jazz Prize; Norwegian French horn player
Hild Sofie Tafjord
, also known for her noise duo with
Maja Ratkje
; British trombonist
Hilary Jeffery
, who has toured with
Jimi Tenor
among others;

, cofounder of Berlin's CTM Festival; and bassist
Martin Heinze
, from the
Berlin Philharmonic
orchestra.
