With the legendary “Studio Reihe Neuer Musik” series, Wergo created a trademark of advanced contemporary music in the Sixties of the past century already. On the occasion of its 50th anniversary, the label now releases these highlights of 20th-century music history in an excellent sound quality on CD for the first time.
Werdo's  unique “Studio Reihe” series continues with Christian Wolff:  The works by Wolff recorded on this CD by the legendary pianists David Tudor and Frederic Rzewski and their fellow musicians David Behrman, John Nash and Gordon Mumma are determined by chance. Wolff's works are characterized by the challenges he assigns to the performers: the responsible use of freedom.  As early as the 1960s, Wergo was able to make a name for itself as a label for contemporary music by releasing outstanding recordings under the title of “studio reihe neuer musik”.

On the occasion of its 50th anniversary, the label now releases these gems from its early days, highlights of 20th-century music history, on CD for the first time in an excellent sound quality.  The recordings were originally published on LP in 1972
