  • Classic Albums: the Berlin/Germany Edition
    Course Title Classic Albums: The Berlin/Germany Edition Course Number REMU-UT 9817 D01 Spring 2019 Syllabus last updated on: 2​3-Dec-2018 Lecturer Contact Information Course Details Wednesdays, 6:15pm to 7:30pm (14 weeks) Location NYU Berlin Academic Center, Room BLAC 101 Prerequisites No pre-requisites Units earned 2 credits Course Description A classic album is one that has been deemed by many —or even just a select influential few — as a standard bearer within or without its genre. In this class—a companion to the Classic Albums class offered in New York—we will look and listen at a selection of classic albums recorded in Berlin, or recorded in Germany more broadly, and how the city/country shaped them – from David Bowie's famous Berlin trilogy from 1977 – 79 to Ricardo Villalobos' minimal house masterpiece Alcachofa. We will deconstruct the music and production of these albums, ​ ​ putting them in full social and political context and exploring the range of reasons why they have garnered classic status. Artists, producers and engineers involved in the making of these albums will be invited to discuss their seminal works with the students. Along the way we will also consider the history of German electronic music. We will particularly look at how electronic music developed in Germany before the advent of house and techno in the late 1980s as well as the arrival of Techno, a new musical movement, and new technology in Berlin and Germany in the turbulent years after the Fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, up to the present.

C.A.R. was founded in 2011 by Johannes Klingebiel and Kenn Hartwig in Cologne, Germany. After an early period of artistic orientation they released “Beyond The Zero” (2014), the “Interlude EP” (2017), “Look Behind You” (2018) and „Befunde ab 1999“ (2020). Originally playing experimental jazz, the media recently labeled their music as Krautrock, Kosmische, Electronica and experimental Pop. Among the highlights of the band´s career were gigs and residencies such as Fusion Festival, Jazzfest Kolkata and Casa Banchel in Madrid. By invitation of the Goethe Institute C.A.R. went on a four week long tour playing concerts in Pakistan, Sri Lanka and India in 2017.

Introduction Electric Junk: Krautrock’s Identity Crisis If there is any musical subculture to which this modern age of online music consumption has been particularly kind, it is certainly the obscure, groundbreaking, and oft misunderstood German pop music phenomenon known as “krautrock”. That krautrock’s appeal to new generations of musicians and fans both in Germany and abroad continues to grow with each passing year is a testament to the implicitly iconoclastic nature of the style; krautrock still sounds odd, eccentric, and even confrontational approximately twenty-five years after the movement is generally considered to have ended.1 In fact, it is difficult nowadays to even page through a recent issue of major periodicals like Rolling Stone or Spin without chancing upon some kind of passing reference to the genre.

  • Booklet Gormenghast
    A FANTASY OPERA BY IRMIN SCHMI DT Irmin Schmidt, founder of the legendary group CAN, has written an opera: GORMENGHAST. Commissioned by Wuppertaler Bühnen, the work was performed in the English language and premiered at the Operahouse Wuppertal on 15. November 1998. Inspired by Mervyn Peake’s masterpiece of gothic fantasy, English novelist Duncan Fallowell wrote the libretto in St. Petersburg, combining romance, comedy and futurism into an adventure of epic strangeness peopled by unforgettable characters. The opera is in 3 acts and centres on the rise and fall of Steerpike, a courageous, clever and charming kitchen-boy who becomes by degrees the murderous tyrant of Gormenghast Castle and its domain. In the process he bewitches and destroys Fuchsia the daughter of Gormen ghast’s opium-addicted ruler. Finally he meets his own dramatic death. The other inhabitants of this vivid decaying realm are drawn into the terrible tale. Irmin Schmidt, who studied under Ligeti and Stockhausen, not only created in CAN one of the most influential of avant garde groups, but is also a classical conductor and pianist and has com- posed music for over 70 film productions. His work transforms elements of the popular, ethnic and classical into a wholly original musical language . In both libretto and music, this integration of high culture and popular culture is not like any- thing which has gone before: it is achieved with perfect naturalness, carrying the art of opera forward into a new phase. The result is both accessible and magically unexpected: GORMENGHAST is a major addition to the world of musical theatre.

  • Krautrock: the Obscure Genre That Changed the Sound of Rock by Zane Van Dusen
    Krautrock: The Obscure Genre That Changed the Sound of Rock By Zane Van Dusen In 1968, a new genre of music appeared in Germany. This music, which had elements of 1960’s rock and experimental music, received the patronizing nickname ‘Krautrock,’ from the British press.1 Due to the relatively small size of this musical movement and the somewhat offensive moniker, Krautrock was all but forgotten in the 1980s and 1990s. Music critics and historians placed the bands from this movement (like Faust, Neu!, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream) in broad genres like “progressive rock” and “psychedelic rock,” and the “press would [not] give such bands more than a jokey note in the 'Where are they now' columns.”2 Then, in 1995, Julian Cope released a book titled Krautrocksampler. The book outlined a history of the Krautrock genre, including reviews of important bands, albums and concerts, and concluded with a list of Cope’s top 50 Krautrock albums. Cope’s book received much praise and started a huge revival of interest within the underground music scene, in addition to introducing “the word 'Krautrock' in a positive, pouting glam rock way.”3 Since the release of Krautrocksampler, Krautrock has become a buzzword in experimental, indie and electronic music publications, like Wire, Pitchfork, and Electronic Musician, and its wide ranging influence is often noted. Although Krautrock was a small and localized movement, this unique genre had a profound impact on modern music, and is just starting to get recognition for it. History and Cultural Background In the 1950s and 1960s, British and American rock music had taken the music world by storm.
