Indeed, but in terms of my own listening, they are overrepresented! Radigue, Oram, Derbyshire, Oliveros, Carlos, Lockwood and that's just straight off the top of my head without even looking at my library! (I'm sure I've missed a couple of biggies).Originally posted by Richard Barrett View Post

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

Some excellent recent releases here, especially the Joanna Sochacka
Listening to the throbbing, hovering ambient drifts of Catherine Lamb recently, following the Gramophone review of her latest release (Muto Infinitas, for db and quarter-tone bass flute ("Another Timbre" label) - shades of Nono perhaps? Liam Cagney's review namechecks La Monte Young, Feldman and... "when you sit for an hour before a Rothko"....oh, if only I could, right now.....), not yet on Qobuz & can't find CD on Amazon, so, not heard it.....
OK, Stray Cats calling out for food and succour.... too much brandy/not enough coffee here, so...... back later....Last edited by jayne lee wilson; 27-05-21, 13:32.Comment

You might find yourself become very quiet - as people did when entering the Rothko Room at the old Tate Britain. It was amazing, the effect of those maroon and black paintings on people. Elsewhere, the usual hushed tones, "It rather reminds me of Rothko, dear", "Shhh - it IS Rothko".Originally posted by jayne lee wilson View PostComment

Think what it was like, accompanied by Steve Reich's Drumming, at the Hayward Gallery in 1972. One of those live 'unplugged' audiovisual events that burns in the memory.Originally posted by Serial_Apologist View PostComment
