Album Notes & Community Reviews
Utilizing a B枚sendorfer grand piano and physically exhausting performance techniques, avant-garde composer Charlemagne Palestine created a defining document of intense acoustic minimalism. 'Strumming Music' relies on fiercely repetitive, rapid-fire note alternations that generate remarkably hypnotic, beautifully atmospheric clouds of overtones, resulting in a profoundly meditative, deeply soothing acoustic experience.
