"’The Well-Tuned Piano’ covers an exceptionally
wide dynamic range. Some sections are extremely loud and other sections
are extremely soft. In order for the soft sections to be loud enough
to hear the inner resonances of the piano, it is appropriate to
set your volume control so that the loudest sections actually fill
the listening space with sound and are as loud as you can comfortably
enjoy them. The first few times that you listen to the work, you
will find an optimum setting for your volume control which you may
eventually want to mark in order to avoid adjusting the volume control
as you listen" (La Monte Young, zit. nach LP-Broschüre).
"La Monte Young is like a one-man space race to the moon.
Just as the technological spin-offs of NASA have influenced diverse
aspects of American Life, Young's determined cultivation of e few
musical idioms has inadvertently introduced new techniques to a
wide variety of artists, composers, and musicians working in rock,
jazz, and ’serious’ music. For Young music is a supernatural
form of communication which grows organically from purely natural
phenomena" (David Farneth, zit. nach LP-Broschüre). |
