About this product

Bronius Kutavicius' oratorio The Seasons (2005-8) sets texts from a classic Lithuanian poem by 18th c. pastor-poet Kristijonas Donelaitis describing the peasant's life of toil. The Seasons mixes musical modernism and folk-inspired primitivism in an astonishingly powerful portrayal of the interaction of human activity and natural forces. Born 1932, Mr. Kutavicius is Lithuania's senior composer and is regarded as a national treasure. This 2012 live recording documents the first complete performance, given in the composer's presence, as part of the celebrations marking his 80th birthday.

Six Organs of Admittance - Companion Rises   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

An amazing new creature from the Six Organs sound-lab! Ben Chasny mixes synths and digital processing techniques with his spacey guitar folk to lift his song-craft further out, while bringing it strangely full circle at the same time, sounding at times like 'Dark Noontide'-era 6OOA and other times likes something all-new! Exquisitely arranged and rich with harmonic exploration, the album presents a handful of folk-tales whose theme can best be stated as 'Stellar-Gnostic.' Sci-folk in the right place at the right time for the new decade.
