Weit Auseinander Liegende Tage Helmut Oehring

In the films of this DVD, Peider A Defilla provides an insight into the oeuvre of Helmut Oehring. The films show musica-viva performances of the works 'Das Blaumeer' and 'Verlorenwasser', and the respective BR-alpha broadcasts on these two compositions.

Special attention is given to the work 'Wrong', the first piece featuring a deaf sign-language soloist. Apart from the interview, excerpts from the rehearsals and the performance with the Xsemble Munich are shown as well. In addition, the data section of the DVD contains further information on Helmut Oehring, the performers and the DVD edition with many useful Internet links.
