"Fumio Yasuda (composition) and Stefan Winter (sound art) conceive a trilogy based on Ludwig van Beethoven in the timbres “Infinite Blue”, “Deep Green” and “Zone Red”. Conducted by Aarón Zapico, Ferhan & Ferzan Önder (piano), Joachim Badenhorst (clarinet), Gareth Davis (bass clarinet), Kelvin Hawthorne and Klaus-Peter Werani (viola) performs. Mathis Nitschke and Stefan Winter create a dialogue with the narrative power of the noises. The Ninth Wave is about the beauty of nature and the tragedy of the human within it. ""Beethoven as a total work of art"" was the headline in the Süddeustsche Zeitung when ""The Ninth Wave"" was performed in Munich as a co-production of Neue Klangkunst and Deutschlandfunk. Beethoven's oeuvre, Géricault's painging ""The Raft of the Medusa "" and Dante's book ”Divine Comedy"" are the base for this work ... but there is also a concrete trigger: the tragedy off the shore of Lampedusa on October 3, 2013."
