Irmin Schmidt

Gormenghast


Krautrock Irmin Schmidt is a founding member of the legendary band Can. His solo work is being made available here as individual releases outside of the now sold out box set 'Electro Violet'. 'Gormenghast' is an opera in three acts composed by Irmin Schmidt to an English-language libretto by Duncan Fallowell, based on Mervyn Peake's Gormenghast Trilogy. 'Gormenghast' alternates between Satie-like playfulness, moments of genuine beauty, and unsettling passages recalling the tense starkness of Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire.
