Freitag aus Ucht
The latest opera in Stockhausen's
Licht, a cycle of seven operas for the seven days of the week. Like the other operas, Friday fuses live singing and instrumental music with electronically created and transformed sounds and tells a self-contained tale from the continuing story of the cycle's main characters.
