Piano Factory 26.
With a blunt motif, 31 variations and a coda, Riotte’s Météorite et ses métamorphoses establishes itself as a concentrated chain of modernist miniatures.

String Theory 30. / EA Bucket 29: Violin, sometimes with electronics
Doppelbelichtung (“Double Exposure”) presents the ingenious effect of birds imitating the violin. The exchange of instrument and recorded warblers confounds and charms.

Our resident curmudgeon is hardly a team player. We considered not publishing these comments as several run counter to other well-placed verdicts.

Mostly Symphonies 36.

Mostly Symphonies 35. / (Dis)Arrangements 11: The Finale of Bruckner’s Ninth
Anton Bruckner died having completed an orchestral draft of all four movements of his Ninth.
