Olivier Messiaen composed the "Quartet for the End of Time" in 194o under the harsh conditions of a WWII prisoner-of-war camp in Görlitz, Germany. On January 15th, 1941 four musicians, including the composer, gave the piece its premiere at Stalag VIII/A prison camp for an audience of prisoners, German officers, and prison guards.
Music for Montauk explores this revelatory work in a special film project recorded and filmed live in Montauk at the Edward F Albee Foundation Barn and at Camp Hero.
