Glissando #24 is a resume of a curatorial and editorial research for experimental music before the 20th century – part of the Avant Avant Garde project organized at the time by Foundation 4.99 and ZAM e.V. The publication brings together dozens of anecdotes, scores, sketches and other takes on experimental practices with sound and music foreshadowing the avant gardes and sound art of the last 100 years. With artists like La Monte Young, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Burkhard Beins or Luigi Russolo in the back of your heads, get into Celts and Hussars, Václav Prokop Diviš and Ernst Chladni, Leonardo da Vinci and Athanasius Kircher – and many, many more.
