File under: 70s electronic
Karl ROSSMANN
Fragments (1974)
an amazing release by the Czech electronic pioneer. In spite of his picaresque life and many eccentricities, it ought to be, and is, as a composer that Rossmann is best known. His artistic output was not only music, of course, and his output in any case was not particularly large. There are about 30 works in all and there are occasional gaps of up to three years between one piece and the next. But what he did produce shows that he was one of the few truly original Czech composers of the last century. However, he also published 7 novels in his later years, 2 volumes of poetry and had two one-man exhibitions of his paintings in the 1930's.
