Kiraly, Erno - Phoenix: The Music Of Erno Kiraly
SKU
REREK1
The first release of music by this unknown Eastern European septegenerian composer. His music stems from two main sources; the traditional folks musics of his country & the noted avant composer Edgard Varese. In addition, Kiraly is an inventor & builder of musical instruments, which are featured here. "At last a CD by this undeservedly hardly known Jugoslavian composer and performer, now in his mid seventies. 30 years ago, while doing folk music research, he dreamed of a massive electrified multi-zither. He woke up and built it and here he plays it - somewhere between Fred Frith and Keith Rowe, but from another musical world. Plus other compositions for orchestra, ensembles of various sorts, electronics and tape.
