Neoclassicism: The Pioneers.
Neoclassicism: An elastic concept for wonderful, often very melodical music. Music that stands on the crossroad of pop, minimal music, ambient and classical composing techniques. From Olafur Arnalds to Nils Frahm and in between, they are all young composers who now revert to a very tonal, classical style. In today’s Feature we look back at some of this genre’s pioneers. Well known and less well known composers such as Wim Mertens, Harold Budd, Peter Garland and Lubomyr Melnyk will pass in review.
