Originally released in 2000, these 2017 Made In Germany Music reissues come in a Digi-Pak with Original Artwork, a 16-Page Booklet and 2 Bonus Tracks!

In 2016 the Made In Germany label’s run on the Klaus Schulze re-issue campaign got seriously underway with a sizable list of other classics (listed below), all available again as MIG pressings in smart Digi-Paks and most with a range of Bonus Tracks. The planned reissues continue into 2017 onwards AND some new titles are scheduled too!

Klaus Schulze talks about ‘Ballett’…
"Apart from ‘Ballett 1 & 2’ the 10CD ‘Contemporary Works’ Box Set also contained ‘Ballett 3’ and ‘Ballett 4’. All four pieces were originally intended to be one composition in honour to my mother who had been a ballet dancer and had died in 1998. I never assumed that the ballet would be performed with dancing. Then I would have to cut down to about fifteen or twenty minutes and would probably have to throw away all my favourite parts, which would be quite difficult! The music could have had another title, but since it was the first production I did after the death of my mother, I called it ‘Ballett’ and just numbered the four parts.
‘Ballett 3’ once again features traditional instrumentalists such as Thomas Kagermann (violin / flute), Wolfgang Tiepold (cello) and Tobias Becker (oboe). Obviously I could have played Tobi’s oboe or Tiepold’s cello with a sampler but it’s really something different when those instruments are played ‘live’ as there is a wonderful interaction with my electronics. Then, you not only have the instruments, but also the musicians’ ego. If I play a cello sample then I’ll do it the way I play keyboards. However, a cellist or oboist plays the ‘real’ instrument with all the subtleties that come with playing, which a sample can never reproduce. The pure sound of an instrument is not the crucial thing here however - it’s the musician’s personality that is important, as it determines the character of the music.”

The Bonus Track on Disc 1: ‘Schauer der Vorwelt’ is very short compared to Klaus’ other works, but there was no room left for a longer track on that disc.
