Onstage discussion with Helmut Lachenmann and Seth Brodsky The music of Helmut Lachenmann (b. 1935) has been described as "ambitious," "powerful," and "life-changing" (The Guardian). A distinctive voice, he coaxes new sounds out of familiar instruments with extended techniques, creating music that is fresh and engaging.
