Description
Three works by Detlef Heusinger come together in this CD, with the electric guitar playing a central role in each. Heusinger had learned classical guitar before he changed to electric guitar at age 14. But his, his duties as composer, conductor and later leader of the SWR Experimentalstudio would leave little room for playing the electric guitar.
With the guitar concerto "2nd Anniversary of Zabriskie Point", however, Heusinger returned to his old love of the instrument. Admittedly, he came back to it with a totally changed perspective: he put the electric guitar in the historical context of electronic music and thus, in a manner of speaking, re-invented it as an instrument. As a solo instrument, the electric guitar conjures a modern version of the timeless "Lulu"; in the solo concerto it functions in what would seem to be a long-outdated genre; in chamber music it serves as a mediator for the whole history of electronic music from the theremin to today.
