Tower of Meaning

by Arthur Russell

Tower of Meaning cover art

Originally composed to accompany a theatrical production directed by avant-garde visionary Robert Wilson, this highly elusive recording was pressed in an incredibly limited vinyl edition. 'Tower of Meaning' completely sheds the disco and pop sensibilities of Russell's downtown New York output, focusing entirely on slowly shifting, consonant orchestral textures and minimalist chamber ensembles. The serene, deeply contemplative suite highlights the composer's profound versatility and formal classical training.
