Listening Session II: A Brief Journey Through the Avant-Garde

Electronic music, understood as music created and reproduced using electronic means, experienced a boom in the post-war period that continues to this day. It was regarded as an expression of the avant-garde’s artistic progress. An acoustic journey based on selected examples traces this development right up to the present day.

The technical effort required to achieve the highest level of auditory pleasure seems boundless. This is also suggested by the term ‘high-end audio’. Players, amplifiers, loudspeakers and even cables are carefully developed and designed. After all, the eye listens too. Four listening sessions offer the opportunity to test the Zeiler Audio system – developed by Ralf Zeiler and designed by FOND Design – through listening. Those who immerse themselves in the melodious sound will experience the spirituality of this way of listening.

Registration registration via the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich website is recommended. Last-minute visitors are very welcome, provided there are places available.
