"Zelt", meaning „tent“, was the debut album of this Austrian ensemble under the direction of the Viennese composer and conductor Ralph Mothwurf and became "Album of the Year" for Deutschlandfunk in 2021. Influenced by Bob Brookmeyer, Ligeti and Kendrick Lamarr, also known from his work with "Yasmo & die Klangkantine", the 35-year-old and his orchestra are dedicated to "the fusion of contemporary modern and improvised music forms". In concrete terms: Mothwurf writes electroacoustic compositions on groups of instruments in such a way that they “act almost like synthesizers and can thus carry out complex sound processes”.
