Alle Dinghe #7.
In 1980 begon de Belgische componist, pianist en vocalist Wim Mertens aan de cyclus Alle Dinghe. De Concertzender zond in het najaar 2005 in 5 maandagnachten de complete cyclus van 37 cd’s uit. De cyclus bestaat uit vier delen: Alle Dinghe, Gave van Niets, Kere Weerom en Aren Lezen. In 2001 werd de cyclus voltooid.
In 2005 werden de verschillende delen door elkaar gedraaid. In deze Nieuwe Muziekochtenden gaan we alles netjes in chronologische volgorde brengen. Vandaag het laatste deel, aangevuld met delen uit Maximizing the Audience, de dubbelelpee waarmeer Wim Mertens doorbrak.
