Andrea Centazzo
Indian Tapes (3LP Box)
*Dead stock copies coming from the artist's archive. Possible wear due to the long storage* Limited and numbered first edition of 300 copies, signed by the artist. This incredible triple LP box contains the masterpieces of the percussive art of Andrea Centazzo. Realized in 1980, this album took Andrea Centazzo at the peak of his percussionist career.
Indian Tapes is not, as one might be led to think, an album inspired by the music of native Americans (which consists mostly of simple monadic and monorhythmic forms of expression) but an original work of art which pays homage to these peoples, to their philosophy of life, and to their relationship with nature.
Limited and numbered edition of 300 copies, signed by the artist. Includes four inserts: 1) a 3-panel booklet with biography, opinions and discography, 2) a 12-page 12" booklet in English with info about the recordings, 3) a 4-page 12" insert in Italian with condensed info, and 4) a 60x90 cm poster. Insert has different spelling for A2: Etude, longer title for E1: Scenes: First Episode (For Metallophones), longer title for E3: Scenes: Second Episode (For Cymbals And Burma Bells) and different spelling for F3: "Ostinato" In Blue.
