Andre Boucourechliev: Archipel 3 (1969 for piano and 6 percussions)


Philips prospective 21e siecle 6526 001 France 197? LP Vinyl: vg+ (minor scuffs)
Cover: ex Stunning original reflective silver cover issue of this "mobile" open form work recorded in 3 versions by Les Percussions De Strasbourg and pianist Georges Pludermacher. The resulting performances border on free improvisation, but the score maintains a system of communication among the players, requiring them to navigate a course through its various islands of sound. This record is part of the great Philips silver series of experimental music that issued legendary recordings by Gilbert Amy, Arne Nordheim, John Cage, Francois Bayle, Bernard Parmegiani, Dubravko Detoni, Ivo Malec, Iannis Xenakis, Mauricio Kagel, Gottfried Michael Koenig, etc.

Boucourechliev worked with Alfred Cortot, Luciano Berio, and Bruno Maderna, and at the INA-GRM musique concrete studios with Pierre Schaeffer, Pierre Henry, Luc Ferrari, and Francois-Bernard Mache.
