Music from the ancient Greece, the late antiquity, Byzantium and today’s compositions by Peter Streiff/Roland Moser and Conrad Steinmann.
Where are beginnings and, if we think we know, where do beginnings lead, which were always already continuations of earlier beginnings? And are there endings? They always find a continuation, an ever-growing chain with neither beginning nor end.
