The secrets of contemporary music

Contemporary music is not easily accessible to all music fans. Some say, “It gives me a headache.” This sometimes even applies to musicians themselves—not all of them love contemporary music. Fortunately, there are those who do love it! A world premiere in particular demands enormous attention and a lot of time from the performers. I admire it every time musicians engage with a new work without any fear and try to discover its hidden secrets. That is truly courageous and deserves great respect!
