Helikopter-Streichquartett


 

Helikopter-Sreichquartett is one of Karlheinz Stockhausen's most well known pieces to date, and one of the most complex.

The CD

The first CD was created on request of the Arditti quartet themselves, including tsome material composed after the world premiere. A recording was made by the WDR, on December the 7th 1996 in Kurten, at the Übertragungswagen, or mobile studio. They used four different rooms in the studio in place of helicopters, using Sony 24 track tape.
