Irmin Schmidt Requiem Vinyl LP 2026
Tracklist:
1.Part 1 - Irmin Schmidt
2.Part 2 - Irmin Schmidt
In Requiem, Irmin Schmidt (co-founder of CAN) blurs the line between composition and environment, delivering a quietly radical, contemplative masterpiece. Created at his home in Southern France, the record unfolds in two sections, pairing prepared and unprepared piano with recordings of the natural world around him: water, birds, frogs, shifting air and quiet nocturnal hums. What began as a spontaneous capture of a nightingaleâs song evolved into a personal ritual, with Schmidt responding instinctively at the piano and later shaping the material with long-time collaborator RenĂ© Tinner. The result is a liminal space that allows the listener to embark on their own journey of contemplation. Approaching his 89th year, Schmidt - a classically trained composer and recipient of major cultural honour in both France and Germany - brings present and distant memories into focus, their merging forming one of his most affecting and inspiring works.
