james tenney's music has been part of zeitkratzer's repertoire for almost a decade. this cd presents a new recording of 'critical band', tenney's late classic, with maximum clarity and the first recording of 'harmonium #2'. both works demonstrate the remarkable power and sharpness which tenney achieved by composing with pure tunings. 'koan: having never written a note for percussion' for tam-tam completes this cd with an orgiastic listening experience in the form of a huge crescendo on this wonderfully simple instrument - from whispering to singing, culminating in shrill roaring and blustering, and its dark decay. tenney's music as a sensual sound adventure! recorded live at philharmonie luxembourg, luxembourg, october 2009.
