„They want to have fun from dusk till dawn. In this, Mr Mozart and the ravers are quite alike.” If you want to get to the bottom of this statement by Friedrich Gulda, the concert „A night with Friedrich Gulda“ of the Munich Klaviersommer 1995 provides the perfect opportunity.
Gulda, the ingenious piano virtuoso, performs classic Mozart sonatas, just to have a party thereafter with the Paradise Trio, the Paradise Girls and DJ Vertigo. The programme includes compositions by Barbara Dennerlein – as well as Techno Music.
Gulda, born 1930 in Vienna, is regarded as one of the cross-over pioneers of his time – after a breathtaking classical career he turned towards Jazz, and later even to electronic music. His compositions as well as his live performances are legendary – they are the refreshing credentials of an unconventional genius.
“You have to realize, that it’s all connected, that Mozart’s music is immensely dance-like and related to Techno in a figurative sense. The differences can be seen by every idiot. But to see the connections you have to be really smart.” (Friedrich Gulda)
