desirePlate 475 · Lucerne, Switzerland

KKL Luzern

A roof that slides over a lake so music can borrow the water.

2000 · Jean Nouvel · Europe

The chamber score

Quartet for the End of Time, Louange

Olivier Messiaen · 1941

Silence as a luxury good.

An original chamber arrangement in the climate of the work. The recording is not a copy. It is the room answering.

Why it is here

Nouvel's culture and congress centre, a cantilever over Lake Lucerne.
