Mauricio Kagel - Acustica - Avantgarde Series LP

Numbered Limited-Edition 180g 2LP — Deutsche Grammophon Avantgarde Series No. 2

Album No. 2 in Deutsche Grammophon's Avantgarde vinyl series. Mauricio Kagel's Acustica (1968–70), composed for experimental sound-producers and loudspeakers, ranks among his most ambitious and radical works, combining electroacoustic tape material made at WDR with acoustic performances on roughly 200 graphic-score cards. It embodies Kagel's idea of instrumentales Theater, where sound, gesture and performer presence merge into a single dramatic and musical act. Mixed and cut from the original analog master tapes at Emil Berliner Studios and pressed on 180-gram vinyl.
