About
This 1976 release represents a collaboration between three influential avant-garde composers: Giacinto Scelsi, Iannis Xenakis, and Philip Glass, performed by violinist Paul Zukofsky. The album features experimental chamber works that bridge post-serial composition, stochastic music, and minimalism. Zukofsky's virtuosic violin work interprets these challenging modernist scores, making the album a significant document of late twentieth-century classical experimentalism and an important intersection of distinct compositional philosophies.
