USSACHEVSKY, LUENING, POWELL~ ELECTRONIC CLASSICAL EXPERIMENTAL LP (1968)
MUSIC FOR ELECTRONICS & OLDER INSTRUMENTS ~ CRI 227 USD
RECORD: (SS) STILL SEALED / MINT JACKET: (SS) STILL SEALED / MINT
Music For Electronic & Older Instruments-- Vladimir Ussachevsky: Of Wood And Brass (1965 for electronic tape); Wireless Fantasy (1960 for electronic tape) / Otto Luening + Ussachevsky: Concerted Piece For Tape Recorder And Orchestra (1960) / Mel Powell: Events For Tape Recorder (1963); Second Electronic Setting (1962); Improvisation (1962 for piano, clarinet, viola); Two Prayer Settings (1963 for chamber ensemble and tenor)
Excellent and rare early electronic pieces from the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center. Wireless Fantasy is a stunning musique concrete piece made out of recordings of historic early radio transmission devices. The Concerted Piece For Tape Recorder And Orchestra is among the first to combine electronics with orchestra and is performed by the Oslo Philharmonic conducted by Jose Serebrier. The lesser known electronic and avant garde works by jazz-pianist-turned-experimental-composer Powell round out the album nicely.
