To celebrate the centenary of his birth, Kate Molleson explores the life and music of one of most influential figures in all of modern music 鈥� Luciano Berio. Berio鈥檚 music is lyrical and expressive, while never ignoring the most advanced techniques and technologies of his time. He worked with many key figures in 20th Century music while always following his own, very individual path, both through life and in his music, where he constantly pushed at and broke the boundaries he encountered.
