When Stockhausen went to the Tate Modern // London Symphony Orchestra & Sir Simon Rattle

A look back at 30 June 2018 when the London Symphony Orchestra performed for the first time at Tate Modern in London.
Conducted by Sir Simon Rattle, with Matthias Pintscher and Duncan Ward, the LSO performed Messiaen's Et exspecto resurrectionem morturom and Stockhausen's Gruppen for three orchestras for an audience in the Turbine Hall. Modern music in the home of modern art.

I went to the open rehearsal and Sir Simon said how much "Sh*t" the composer had given him about the tuning of the tom-toms (when he performed it in the 90s). So he was extra careful about the percussionists tuning up before the performance.
