Italian edition on Ri-Fi with different cover of the 1961 album on Time's "Series 2000" with three landmark avant-garde compositions form the 1950's performed by David Tudor, Christoph Caskel and Bernhard and Aloys Kontarsky.

condition (record/cover): VG+ (surface noise throughout) / EX (light wear)

This is one of the records in the series that Earle Brown produced for the American Time Records label, which in the early sixties brought the European and American avant-gardes to vinyl side by side. It holds Karlheinz Stockhausen's Zyklus (1959) for one percussionist and Refrain (1959) for three performers, with its rotating transparent strip that superimposes clusters, glissandi and small "refrains" onto the music.

On the other side, Mauricio Kagel's Transición II (1959) for piano, percussion and two tapes, one of which records the performance and plays it back as it goes on. An Italian pressing by Ri-Fi in a gatefold sleeve, with notes by the composers.
