Summary/Abstract: Among the composers who have contributed to broadening the limits of the universe of contemporary music Helmuth Lachenmann is well known. At the end of the 1960s using the method of the “dialectical structuralism” Helmuth Lachenmann developed what he defined as “musique concrète instrumentale” – a music made up of mainly noisy tones produced through the non-conventional use of voices and traditional instruments. The composer integrated these new sounds into the European symphonic tradition. In his work Helmuth Lachenmann attempts to prevail over the stereotypes and inertia of auditory perception, as well as to pin down a new understanding of beauty, that he defined as “habit rejection”.
