The Avant Garde Project is a series of 20th-century classical-experimental-electroacoustic torrents digitized from LPs whose music has in most cases never been released on CD, and so is effectively inaccessible to the vast majority of music listeners today. This is wild stuff, so check it out if you've never heard this sort of music before. The analog rig used to extract the sound from the grooves is near state-of-the-art, producing almost none of the tracking distortion or surface noise normally associated with LPs.

AGP120 is the first of two featuring works by the influential American composer Lukas Foss. Frankly, he has never been a special favorite of mine, but I enjoyed listening to many of the works in this installment and AGP121. A number of them show clear minimalist influences, but without as much of a populist bent as Steve Reich and Philip Glass had. The rhythms and harmonies are more complex, often to intriguing effect.

This installment includes one Foss composition from the same Deutsche Grammophon LP that filled out AGP119, as well as a work by Elliott Schwartz from the same LP. The remaining tracks come from a Gramavision Records LP (GR7005). The recordings are all quite nice, and the transcriptions have little surface noise or tracking distortion. --- avantgardeproject.conus.info
