New home for WDR’s Studio for Electronic Music

Matthias Kremin, Head of Programming at WDR 3 and WDR 5: “WDR’s Studio for Electronic Music made cultural history. I’m delighted that this cultural achievement will now be transported into the present and the future. The studio will therefore remain a venue for creative musical encounters in North Rhine-Westphalia.”

Founded in the 1950s, the legendary Studio for Electronic Music was the first of its kind in the world and made international music history. Composers such as Karlheinz Stockhausen, Mauricio Kagel and Bernd Alois Zimmermann used the facility to create important works that still shape many musical genres: from new and electronic music to techno and pop.
