An exhibition about the legendary German electronica band, Tangerine Dream will be opening at the Barbican in the New Year<\/p>\n
Although not a major name, they have quite the cult following and are widely credited as laying the foundations for the Ambient and Trance music styles.<\/p>\n
The exhibition, Tangerine Dream: Zeitraffer, which opens at the Barbican Music Library on 16 January 2020, will show off photographs, previously unpublished articles, video clips, and original synthesizers used by the band and a vinyl listening station.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Your correspondents first encounter with their music was the score for the also little known, but quite exceptional gothic horror movie, The Keep. Theres always been a certain mystery about why the soundtrack wasnt commercially released with talk of legal problems keeping it under wraps for decades.<\/p>\n
In the 53 years since it was founded the band has scored over 60 films and released 160 albums, and the odd computer game or two.<\/p>\n
The exhibitions four-month run will feature a reading from Edgar Froeses autobiography, Tangerine Dream Force Majeure, by his widow, Bianca Froese-Acquaye, and a screening of the documentary Revolution Of Sound: Tangerine Dream, which includes a talk with director Margarete Kreuzer.<\/p>\n
Tangerine Dream: Zeitraffer runs from Thursday 16 January to Saturday 2 May 2020 at Barbican Music Library. Its open daily, except Sundays.<\/p>\n
Entry is free.<\/p>\n
