Patris Martina Arroyo (Soprano solo) Orchestre et choeurs West Deutcher Rundfunk Chef des choeurs : Herbert Schernus, Orgues Alois et Alfons Kontarsky 

 Dans la salle de répétition d'un studio de Cologne, Stockhausen évoque la genèse et la signification de cette oeuvre d'amour : "Je ne vis pas d'histoire, je ne vis que des moments." Ce sont ceux que le compositeur a voulu recréer musicalement qui se succèdent ici, se rencontrent et se surimpressionnent dans l'écoute.

"Momente n'est pas une histoire inventée, c'est une oeuvre qui n'existe que par le degré de présence de chaque évènement. Ces moments ne s'expliquent que par le passé et l'expérience, et ne sont là que pour créer l'espoir d'autres moments à vivre".

Brahms Hungarian Dance No.5 in F Sharp Minor, Allegro - Alfons Kontarsky & Aloys Kontarsky

--------------------------------------------

The Hungarian Dances (German: Ungarische Tänze) by Johannes Brahms are a set of 21 lively dance tunes based mostly on Hungarian themes, completed in 1869.

They vary from about a minute to four minutes in length. They are among Brahms's most popular works, and were certainly the most profitable for him. Each dance has been arranged for a wide variety of instruments and ensembles. Brahms originally wrote the version for piano four-hands and later arranged the first 10 dances for solo piano.

Only numbers 11, 14 and 16 are entirely original compositions. The most famous Hungarian Dance is No. 5 in F♯ minor (G minor in the orchestral version)[citation needed], but even this dance was based on the csárdás by Béla Kéler titled "Bártfai emlék" which Brahms mistakenly thought was a traditional folk song.
