Fernando Grillio / Dumitrscu / Nemescu / Cazaban / Surianu - Electrecord 2XLP


The fantastic Fernando Grillio teaming up with all star Romanian composers , Iancu Dumitrescu , Octavian Nemescu, Costin Cazaban , Horia Surianu.
Truly on my mind Grillio was the only real candidate to perform these pieces.
Grillio is well known for his technical accomplishment and one of the rare to accomplish such sonic detail and timbral finesse I can imagine that these pieces were written with Grillio specifically in mind.
Double bass , prepared pianos ,gongs ,Crystals ,Synths ,saws and Cobza (Romanian luth)

Anestis Logothetis "Hör!-spiel” Necrologlog 1961 Fantasmata 1960 - Jeunesse Musicales/ Preiser Records


Absolute must have album from Greek/Austrian composer Logothetis . "Hör!-spiel" was realised in 1974. Nekrologo 1961 composed in 1961. Fantasmata 1960 realised in 1961. All tracks were realised at Institut für Elektroakustik der Musikhochschule Wien.
Aggressive journey of concrete sounds and complete mayhem, industrial sound scapes ; This album has NWW list written all over it, and maybe it is ; Mind blowing stuff !!!! , I don't believe there has been a CD re-issue yet. Check the sound files !!!

Jocy De Olivieira Estorias Para Voz Instrumentos Acusticos E Electronicos - 1981


Composer and pianist Jocy de Oliveira was born in Curitiba and spent her youth in São Paulo. In contrast to many Brazilian musicians she has spent a very significant part of her career outside Brazil, with study in Paris and many international concert performances and recordings. Her interpretations of the Catalogue des Oiseaux and the Vingt Regards by Olivier Messiaen were issued by Vox in the seventies. Her recent work in music theater is available on a number of compact discs. Inori à prostituta sagrada (RER) and Illud tempus (O.O. Discs) are the first and second parts of a trilogy that was concluded with As Malibrans (2000). She is a member of the Brazilian Academy of Music.
This album , shows many different facets of Oliveira , as a composer , and as pianist . It comes highly recommended.
I will be honest in telling you , that is release can be dificult to find ; It is a vinyl only , though it has been re-issued on Creel pone (in very limited quantities).
