Composition 2021.05 (Karlheinz Stockhausen) is based on the twenty-four-tone pitch row from Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Klang series of compositions (2005-2007). The twenty-four notes of the row were organised by Stockhausen that allow for both consonances and dissonances to occur - which is reflected in this new composition. This is the pitch row: E2 - C2 - F2 - D3 - C#3 - D#3 - A3 - G3 - G#3 - B2 - F#3 - A#2 - D#2 - C#2 - D2 - F3 - C3 - E3 - A#3 - F#3 - B3 - G#2 - G2 - A2. It was used in its original form in the composition - and also in retrograde.
