Three chamber pieces (respectively for 5 oboes, solo percussionist, string quartet) with unconventional and extended instrumental techniques, spanning from 1969 to 1982, released in 1985

condition (record/cover): NM / NM - Discours III+VI / Toucher on Preciosa Aulos pairs two episodes from Vinko Globokar's Discours series with a piece whose title, "touch," shifts attention from hearing to tactility. Globokar knew that senses aren't sealed compartments: you listen with skin, you touch with ears. Synesthesia isn't rhetorical figure but phenomenological fact.

The German label specializing in early music seems an incongruous choice for such advanced avant-garde. But Globokar would have appreciated the short-circuit: demonstrating that radical experimentation shares something with pre-Baroque repertoire, the same attention to articulation, gesture, the body that sounds. Preciosa Aulos understood that musical time isn't linear, that 1975 can neighbor 1575 without contradiction.
