Concerts at Logos - 1969

Nederlandse tekst over 10 jaar Logos 1968-1979

Voor een goed verhaal over de geschiedenis van logos, is er het boek van Godfried-Willem Raes: 'Logos @ 50, het kloppend hart van de avant-garde muziek in Vlaanderen' (ed. Stichting Kunstboek, Oostkamp, 2018)

In 1969 the people in the logos workshop were: Godfried-Willem Raes, Mark Desmet, Emmy Meirlaen, Etienne Baert, Dirk Verschraegen, Jan Van Opstal, Bea Van Lancker (+), Roel Goussey, Jan Kerkhof, Frank Vercruysse (+). We were based at the Royal Conservatory and had our rehearsal room in the 'Pand' in the infamous Patershol district in Ghent. Godfried-Willem Raes became the president of the Universitary Musicclub (UMG) and thus had the opportunity to organize new music concerts (in the beginning mostly in collaboration with the former Ipem studio) and to invite musicians from abroad.

The group, operating as a chamber music ensemble, had a repertoire with pieces by Karlheinz Stockhausen, David Behrman, Morton Feldman, John Cage, Cornelius Cardew, Christian Wolff, Earle Brown.

Personal contacts were established with composer/performers/groups such as Cornelius Cardew, Sonic Arts Union, Taj Mahal Travellers (Jacques Bekaert, Takehisa Kosugi), John Cage, Gordon Mumma, Louis Andriessen, Peter Schat, Wham, Paul Van Gijsegem, Dick Raaijmakers.
