Growing up in Vienna (Austria) Volkmar Klien spent his childhood engulfed in the city\u2019s rich musical life with all its glorious traditions and engrained rituals. Working from this background he strives to extend traditional practices of composing, producing and listening far beyond the established settings of concert music.
