Album Notes & Community Reviews
Documenting a truly monumental logistical and sonic achievement, this album captures the premiere of Branca's composition performed entirely by an ensemble of one hundred electric guitars. Recorded in front of the World Trade Center site, the symphony is a terrifying, overwhelmingly dense wall of microtonal dissonance and awe-inspiring volume.
