Orchestral Sessions Works by Scelsi, Xenakis, Takemitsu, Caspi
Halle am Berghain
Gong solo: Storm Hartley
Conductor : Avi Caspi
A full string orchestra and seventeen gongs converge in Halle am Berghain for the second edition of Orchestral Sessions. This program brings together the meditative intensity of
Giacinto Scelsi, the Tectonic structures of Iannis Xenakis, and the quiet luminosity of Tōru
Takemitsu’s Requiem, alongside a new work by Berlin based conductor and composer Avi
Caspi. Performed in total darkness, within the stripped geometry of Halle am Berghain the
evening emphasizes sound as physical presence; immersive, immediate, and unadorned
where orchestral music is infused with the spatial and emotional logic of the club.
Scelsi’s symphonic sorcery moves through microtonal vibration and trance inducing
resonance. His work treats sound as a living, breathing entity; less composed than conjured.
Xenakis, by contrast, channels architecture and mathematics into vast sonic forms governed
by stochastic processes and physical force . Between them, Takemitsu’s Requiem offers a
space of study in restraint, silence, and sustained intensity. Caspi’s composition for
handmade gongs, blurring the line between percussion and atmosphere, provokes seismic
structures from within the body of the orchestra itself.
