Phil Kline has set these profound and desperate poems with a calm and sacred spaciousness, echoing through the listener as if the soldiers themselves were singing to us from the afterlife. Coupled with 'Three Rumsfeld Songs' ('As We Know', 'That Many Vases', and 'Near-Perfect Clarity'), 'Zippo Songs' is Kline's statement on war and the politics of war in a fresh, new take on the age-old tradition of the protest song" (Publisher's blurb).

Presents, in its very first release, Michael Gordon's "Decasia". Pronounced as "di-KA-zha", the soundtrack to Bill Morrison's film of the same name. Premiered at the Sundance, Rotterdam, and Edinburgh Film Festivals in 2002. "A large-scale, single-movement, relentlessly monumental work about decay - the decay of melody, of tuning, of classical music itself. Following the atmospheric ambience of his recent string orchestra piece, 'Weather', Michael Gordon's new work re-tunes a giant amplified orchestra (the Basel Sinfonietta) to resemble a piano fallen from a great height. With gripping strings, four de-tuned pianos, and massive winds and brass, the huge sound comes out of electronica and Mahler at the same time. Stratospheric harmonies decay one into another, giant blocks of sounds shift and fall like an earthquake giving off a tremendous energy. At the 2002 premiere performance, the Basel Sinfonietta stood on a triangular pyramid three-tiers high, completely surrounding the audience within" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Michael Gordon and Basel Sinfonietta collectors.

Debut Recording of the composer's landmark work. One of David Lang's finest achievements. The first and only edition. Produced in a small and limited print run as a Compact Disc. There is no I…SBN. The CD is now scarce. Presents, in its very first release, David Lang's "Child". Definitive performances by the Sentiere Selvaggi Ensemble and Carlo Boccadoro. His first major new work since "The Passing Measures". "A powerful meditation on childhood and memory. Sweet and simple on the surface, gentle musical fragments float by leaving faint traces of darkness in their wake. The result is at once dramatic, personal, intensely introspective, and piercingly beautiful. Written in five separate parts for some of Europe's finest groups, 'Child' is recorded here by the Italian ensemble Sentiere Selvaggi" (Publisher's blurb). "My attempt to examine certain experiences as I remember (and mis-remember) them from my childhood. Each of the individual movements is in some way a memory of how I learned how to do something. Because I was taught (as most children are) that one learns how to perceive the world by making up rules, it has been possible to apply these rules to musical environments. I am not nostalgic for childhood, mine or anyone else's. It is not the point of 'Child' to show either how childhood is a time of great excitement or great disturbance or that I miss it or that I suffered through it. What is most interesting to me, especially now that I have children of my own, is that childhood is the time when one learns how to think, how to feel, how to move forward. Because each piece of music in some way needs to teach its listener its own rules for how it works, it is a comparison I have found meaningful" (David Lang). An absolute "must-have" title for David Lang, Sentiere Selvaggi, and Carlo Boccadoro collectors. This copy of the Compact Disc (CD) of "Child" is very boldly and beautifully signed in metallic-silver pen-marker in front by David Lang. It is signed directly on the cover itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the CD available online, is enclosed in its own protective plastic sleeve, and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Because of its very limited number, its collectible value will not only keep but increase over time. A rare signed copy thus. Best Original Song Academy Award Finalist for "A Simple Song", the theme of Paolo Sorrentino's "Youth" in 2016. One of the most brilliant composers of our time. A fine copy.

Presents, in its very first release, Michael Gordon's "Van Gogh". A definitive performance by Alarm Will Sound. His "video opera". "Amongst my favorite Michael Gordon works: It's hard-hitting, edgy, but includes music of impassioned lyricism. On first hearing it, I was immediately moved by the story Michael tells of Van Gogh's life: His adolescent anxieties, professional challenges, and the sort of transcendence that comes with his eventual institutionalization. Brings a directness and intimacy to the Van Gogh story by sharing it entirely through the artist's own private letters. This emotional directness makes for some of his most powerful music" (Alan Pierson). "I have always loved this work. Alarm Will Sound's performance is everything I could have dreamed of: Funky, passionate, and precise" (Michael Gordon). An absolute "must-have" title for Michael Gordon and Alarm Will Sound collectors. This copy of the Compact Disc (CD) of "Van Gogh" is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black pen-marker in front by Michael Gordon.

The CD is now scarce. Presents Michael Gordon's "Trance". A hypnotic dream-scape in sound that, not surprisingly, caused a sensation upon its release. "Aggressive, hair-raising, and unstoppable. Icebreaker re-mixed and re-mastered the ground-breaking work for its release in conjunction with the Contemporary Music Network Tour in the United Kingdom, plus concert dates in The Netherlands and Germany. A kaleidoscope of pan-pipe melodies and provocative rhythms featuring Icebreaker's aggressively virtuosic sound" (The Wall Street Journal). "I knew right away that this piece was for Icebreaker. I had been working with them for several years and they were everything that every other ensemble was not. The first time I met them, they took me to a cottage outside of London where they rehearsed all day long for four days straight. At the end of each day, they would quit rehearsing and after a group dinner, they would start playing tapes for each other and talk about music. This went on until 4 AM. Their openness and flexibility allowed me to imagine music with a strong rhythmic pulse, written down with no one playing the beat and no one playing on the beat. Icebreaker have trained themselves to play in independent interlocking units going on simultaneously, like all the different thoughts in one's head, like being able to hear all the music going on everywhere in the world in one's head, at the same time" (Michael Gordon). An absolute "must-have" title for Michael Gordon and Icebreaker collectors.

A definitive performance by Glenn Kotche. The distillation of Adams' definition of percussion: "The tone within the noise". "A true electro-acoustic recording that channels the energy, passion, and precision of Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche, 'Ilimaq', which translates from the native Inupiaq language as 'spirit journeys', maps a phantasmagorical progression through liquid cascades of percussion, otherworldly ambient soundscapes, harmonic dissonance, melodic convergence, and almost everything that's musically and sonically possible in between" (Publisher's blurb). "48 minutes of an almost violent but passionate performance. The one-man percussion was sonically heightened by the digital delays that blasted through the speakers. Though we were underground, 'Ilimaq' seemed to seep into the New York City streets" (Baeble Music). "From the first note, it requires total concentration and all of my physical stamina. I get into an almost trance-like state when performing it, not too unlike the shamanistic 'spirit journey' which inspired the piece" (Glenn Kotche). An absolute "must-have" title for John Luther Adams and Glenn Kotche collectors. This copy of the Slipcased Compact Disc/DVD is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen-marker in front by John Luther Adams.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 1 pages. Published in 2001. New Recording of the composer's masterpiece. One of the most important and influential works of the 20th century. The first and only edition. Produced in a small and limited print run as a Com…pact Disc. There is no ISBN. The CD is now scarce. Presents Terry Riley's "In C". A new and definitive performance by Bang On A Can. The Big Bang of Minimalism from, incredibly, 1964: "Kicked off a revolution, inspiring such young composers as Philip Glass and Steve Reich. Bang On A Can re-interprets this Minimalist classic with an explosive combination of instruments from around the globe, propelling this transcendent Sixties masterpiece into the future" (Publisher's blurb). "There are a handful of recordings available of this Minimalist masterpiece. But Bang On A Can's, featuring violin, chimes, clarinet, mandolin, and bass at the fore, is easily one of the best. The delicate tremolo of Scott Kuney's mandolin gives the entire recording a nervous energy that is much needed on this warhorse. The piercing violin of Todd Reynolds is haunting, and Mark Stewart's electric guitar gives the ensemble added sonic punch" (Jason Verlinde). An absolute "must-have" title for Terry Riley and Bang On A Can collectors. This copy of the Compact Disc (CD) of "In C" is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen-marker in front by Terry Riley.

New Recording of the composer's pioneering masterworks. One of Philip Glass' finest achievements. The first and only edition. Produced in a small and limited print run as a Compact Disc. There… is no ISBN. The CD is now scarce. Presents Philip Glass' "Music In Fifths" and "Two Pages". Definitive performances by Bang On A Can of two ground-breaking works that have stood (and unlike most Minimalist music, withstood) the test of time. "Arguably Minimalism's most well-known and influential composer. Before film soundtracks, operas, and universal acclaim, there were these intense, rugged, and demanding early works for keyboard. Glass' ideas here are at their most basic, using only addition and subtraction of notes in simple scales to create epic and hypnotic musical forms. Bang On A Can All-Stars re-conceive these works for their ground-breaking sound of clarinet, cello, bass, piano, marimba, and electric guitar. In the tradition of their award-winning recording of Terry Riley's 'In C' (the Number One CD of 2001 by both The New York Times and The Washington Post), the musicality, passion, and focus plus the sparkling sound quality of the recording, catapult these classic works into the 21st century" (Publisher's blurb).

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 1 pages. Published in 2011. The composer's masterpiece, presented in a "Collector's Item" Compact Disc (CD) wood-cased format. Deluxe Edition of 25 numbered and signed copies. Precedes and should NOT be confused with the… regular trade edition. There is no ISBN. The Deluxe Edition is now rare. Presents, in its most collectible format, Michael Gordon's "Timber". A mesmerizing and transformative experience. "Featuring packaging in a real wooden box with a heat-stamped cover design, 'Timber' is an evening-length tour-de-force: Scored for six graduated wooden Simantras percussion instruments devised by French composer Iannis Xenakis, the work brings the physicality, endurance, and technique of percussion performance to a new level. Gordon shapes the music in both polyrhythmic and dynamic waves of textures. Often, each player's hands are in separate rhythmic 'worlds', each traversing a different dynamic contour from loud to soft to loud" (Publisher's blurb). "Six percussionists beat rapidly on a Simantra (a wooden slab) to create a magnificently tactile texture in which densities and implied harmonies unfold, often surprisingly, over five movements lasting 55 minutes. The music never falls flat or stiff, never warps under the changes in tone, pressure or frequency of strikes performed by the tireless Slagwerk Den Haag. Gordon revisits the meaningful repetitions perfected by one of his musical idols, Steve Reich, particularly 'Drumming'. Here, however, the repetition and rhythm are less tribal and more naturalistic, evoking the four elements at various turns" (The New York Times). The successor of both Iannis Xenakis and Steve Reich, Michael Gordon is one of the most exciting (and important) serious composers of our time. "Timber" shows that he has fully absorbed his musical influences, and at the same time, transcended them. An absolute "must-have" title for Michael Gordon collectors. This is a copy of the Deluxe Edition of 25 copies, indicated/numbered as such on verso. It is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen in front by Michael Gordon. It is signed directly on the case itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Deluxe Edition available online, is enclosed in its own protective plastic sleeve, and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Precedes and should NOT be confused with the regular trade edition. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant composers of our time. A fine copy.
