MORPHOLOGIES OF TIME IN STOCKHAUSEN'S ‘LICHT’

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  04 July 2008

Extract

Since music is a ‘time art’, it follows that questions of form cannot be entirely detached from considerations of time; indeed some composers would argue that they cannot be detached from it at all. The issues involved … partly stray into areas of philosophy. (Toop 2005: 166)

Imagine fundamental durations beyond boundaries of musical time. (Stockhausen 1959: 26)
