  About the Installation of Karlheinz Essl's Lexikon-Sonate   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In 1992, when Karlheinz was commissioned to write a piece for IRCAM (the music department of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and my place of employment), he started to use IRCAM's MAX program to reformulate and extend the compositional strategies he developed before in his own LOGO-based computer-aided composition environment.
Thus, in composing this piece, Karlheinz was not concerned with scoring the music, but with devising a set of rules or mechanisms (a kind of meta-composition) which describe the overall development, as well as the detailed articulation of an infinite stream of piano music.
Karlheinz Essl was born in Vienna in 1960.
