Unseen Worlds

Melnyk is a Ukrainian composer who has worked in obscurity and "shit poverty" (as he puts it) for more than forty years. This was only his third concert in New York. He is debatably the fastest pianist in the world and has created his own "continuous music"—an exquisite layering of harmonic overtones and melodies. Waves of sound build, mix, vibrate, and rupture. The physical properties of his music are astounding; then to see it played, coming out of a piano being driven at top speed or almost possessed by a man whose arms seem to be more swimming than playing an instrument. Any fans of minimalism and maverick experimentalism with an immensely attractive sound should check out Melnyk's phenomenal performance of his unique music.Vinyl with Download Card.
