Lukas Ligeti / John Cage / Zoltán Kocsis / Lászlo Vidovsky / Istvan Marta / Karlheinz Stockhausen / Laszlo Sary

Donnerstag (Thursday), the first opera of the Licht (Light) cycle, to which Karlheinz Stockhausen devoted twenty-five years of his life, is the day of Archangel Michael, his youth, journey around the earth and his return. It is also an autobiographical moment in time, overwhelmingly so, in a spiral that leads to the stars and the harmony of the universe.
