Facchin / Avalokite Duo / Facchin - Planets   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Lou Harrison said InchA friend reminded me that Conductor L. Stokowski was about to celebrate his 90th birthday, and that several composers had already written short pieces for the occasion so in a hurry, I composed Jahla. It was performed, with other pieces, during the birthday party for this dear friendInch.

About Avalokiteshvara, Harrison said InchAvalokiteshvara is the Buddha of compassion, he who saves all creatures. It is a piece written in the Korean style called The DelightfulInch. Music for Bill and Me (1967), for Harp is dedicated to his life partner William Colvig, an electrician and passionate musician with a great interest in acoustics. Bill built several percussion instruments that were used by Lou over the course of many years.

The Planets is a suite composed of a series of nine short musical tales inspired by the InchmoodsInch, sensations and imagination that connect us to mythology and astrology.

Serenade (1978) for Guitar with Optional Percussion 3. The Planets (2017-2018) Suite in Nine Pieces, f
