The Ligeti Project II: Lontano; Atmosphères; Apparitions; San Francisco Polyphony; Concert românesc
by György Ligeti & Berliner Philharmoniker & Jonathan Nott
Part of a comprehensive retrospective supervised by the legendary composer himself, this compilation gathers defining performances of his most famous micropolyphonic orchestral works. Executed brilliantly by the Berlin Philharmonic, the record highlights the terrifying, spatial tension of pieces like 'Atmosphères', immortalized in Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey'.
