condition (record/cover): EX/VG+. One of the rarest artifacts from Italy's most radical composers collective! Formed in Rome in 1964, the Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza brought together extraordinary minds - Franco Evangelisti, Ennio Morricone, Egisto Macchi, Mario Bertoncini, Walter Branchi, Giovanni Piazza, and Jesús Villa Rojo - in unprecedented experiments with collective improvisation. This 1975 release, their fifth album, captures the ensemble at their sublime best. Delicate acoustic textures sculpt endlessly surprising spatial fields, penetrated by percussive interventions and atonal gestures - each voice responding and intervening without dominance, creating something entirely new. Breaking with the divisions that defined the global avant-garde - drawing freely on jazz, serialism, musique concrète, and extended techniques - the Gruppo created a profoundly optimistic vision of hybrid practice that still sounds remarkably fresh. Wildly intelligent yet utterly natural, this is collective creation at the highest level. Original Cinevox pressing - virtually unobtainable!
