ダルムシュタット夏季現代音楽講習会
In 1984 Kuczer was invited to perform a first concert with pieces from Civilización o Barbarie at the "Darmstädter Ferienkurse" in Darmstadt. The invitation was made on behalf of Brian Ferneyhough, who had the chance to hear some of the pieces beforehand. In a letter to the organizers he wrote: "In my opinion these pieces... are partly of very great interest". And later: "... I consider him to be a major composer in this area".
