Eighth Symphony
Two LPS in 180 Gram Vinyl High Quality Pressing. "'I have one Sinfonie' professed Hermann Nitsch identifying with Bruckner who made a similar claim of his symphonic output. For comparison, La Monte Young has a similar concept, for example, The Tortoise, His Dreams, and Journey's from 1964 -- eternity, with each realization, the piece never ends; it's a continuation.

François Dufrêne
2007 release. François Dufrêne (1930-1982) is one of the leading artists from the post-War European and French art scene. He played a key role in many of the initiatives of Lettrism, Nouveau Réalisme and sound poetry.

His oeuvre constitutes a singular example of this special relationship between art and language, which throughout the 20th centur…

Now this DVD brings the music of the legendary, long unavailable LP Gehö…

Robert Watts’s 1969 “string record composition” (simply astounding ear…
