"'Experiments in Oscillation'
In the foyer of the Kunsthalle, after meditative and transcendental music, we became acquainted with 'free music'.
Let's just come right out and say it: no matter what idea these three protagonists with their diverse instruments had
with regard to what the term 'free music' means, it was definitely free of any and all artistic responsibility.
Even if the program flyer clarified that it was simply an 'experiment with dynamic oscillations', that's not any sort of alibi
for a monotone, two-hour phonic slaughter. 'Continuity as form' (as another program slogan went) requires acoustic sensibility, too."
