AGP22 continues our
festival of percussion with two more works.
The Bride Stripped Bare by her Bachelors, Even. Erratum Musicale, by Marcel Duchamp, is from the same LP that yielded "26'1.1499" for a Percussionist" from AGP18. Donald Knaack interprets it entirely with instruments made of glass, and it sounds lovely. It's a bit like Glas Spiele from AGP1, but more spare. Provisoires Agglomerates by Michel Puig is a work for
percussion ensemble, voices, and magnetic tape, left over from AGP21. It depicts the horrors of an
atomic explosion, and has something of the emotional intensity of
Penderecki's "Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima". NOTE: This installment originally had one more work--Des
Imagistes by William Kraft. That work is now available on CD
through New World
Records in a collection
of Kraft's compositions, and so it has been removed from this
installment. To download AGP22 files, right-click on each of the following links and select SAVE LINK AS.
