The AGP starts
a new year with the first of a set of installments transcribed from
CDs, and provided through the generosity of an AGP partisan in Germany.
This week's selection was programmed by our content benefactor himself,
and features the work of the Swiss composer Heinz Holliger. I have a
few works by Holliger in my stacks (all currently available on CD), but
had never heard these works before listening to them in preparing this
installment. I haven't probed them deeply, but to my untutored ear they
have an Italianate sound (think Maderna and Berio), with interesting
deployment of tonal combinations. 02 - Siebengesang, 1966-67
[21:12] 03 - Come and go 01, 1977
[11:58] 04 - Come and go 02, 1977
[9:02] 05 - Come and go 03, 1977
