description:
Mega rare lp of Dutch experimental music, most notable for the rare early composition by Mengelberg, better known for his later free jazz work. Mengelberg's atonal serialist Pianopieces are performed here by John Tilbury, member of legendary improv group AMM. The heavily percussive Schat work was originally composed for a 1968 political demonstration/"action" in honor of Che Guevara, and is performed by Nederlands Blazers Ensemble, De Slagwerkgroep Amsterdam, and Amsterdams Strijkkwartet. Other featured performers are Reinbert de Leeuw, piano, Piet Honingh, clarinet, Harry Starreveld, flute, Harry Sparnaay, bass clarinet, and Rene Eckhardt, piano. Includes insert.

Packing I pack professionally and with the utmost care drawn from years of experience trading vinyl internationally. I use new record mailers which I have determined are the best and most protective, reinforced with cardboard inserts and bubble wrap padding. All records are shipped with poly plastic sleeves and with the vinyl outside of the cover to prevent damage. All packages are completely sealed with strong packing tape covering all openings. Unless requested, no paper invoice is included in the package, both to save trees and to avoid customs difficulties. If you'd like your package done any differently, just let me know.

Payment I accept Paypal (which allows for fastest possible shipment). Please email with any payment questions. If you are paying by Paypal and have won multiple items, please use a single Paypal payment. I will send an eBay invoice to winners shortly after my auctions close, and an email after payment has been received to confirm item shipment.

Records are visually graded unless otherwise noted; my condition rating scale is M (sealed) / NM (unplayed) / EX (barely used) / VG (some evident wear from prior use but no major flaws) / G (major flaws) / F (very major flaws).
