大大大推薦！！コレは非常に素晴らしい演奏内容！！英国実験音楽界の父コーネリアス・カーデューによる超重要作[The Great Learning]の貴重録音が登場！！孔子の[大学]を元にした7パートからなる大型アンサンブルの為の作品であり、本作はアメリカの作曲家にしてWandelweiser派のコンダクターDean Rosenthal率いるモントリオール・スクラッチ・オーケストラが演奏した[Paragraph 1] & [Paragraph 7]の録音。1996年にモントリオールのマギル大学のホールにて披露された実験音楽愛好家14名によるパフォーマンスで、ユニークなコンセプトが極太の持続音と詠唱により紡がれていく、最初から最後まで圧倒される事間違いなしの超名演。12ページのブックレット付き。

Tone Glow Records is proud to present a special archival recording of Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 7 from Cornelius Cardew's The Great Learning. Conducted and formed by American composer Dean Rosenthal, the Montréal Scratch Orchestra featured 14 or so like-minded experimental music enthusiasts who performed the pieces at Redpath Hall on the McGill University campus in 1996. This release arrives on Cardew's 85th birthday and follows Rosenthal's Stones/Water/Time/Breath, which was released in 2019 on Edition Wandelweiser Records.
