Some words on this issue: XENAKIS IANNIS 5 LP BOX SET: “Xenakis” (Erato/ Nippon Columbia – OS-2363~7-RE) Rare Japanese pressing on high quality vinyl of this legendary but rare 5 LP box documenting the many sides of the greatest composer ever, Iannis Xenakis. Ranging from orchestral works over to orchestra and magnetic tape compositions up to pure electronic works, this box sheds great clarity upon some of his works such as the highlight of the set the early electronic works that concern themselves with the human expression as poured into a cloud of pointillistic noise. With the total control that electronic and magnetic tools allowed, Xenakis could fully explore his concepts of sonic architecture. Massive stuff and hard to get in such a nice nick as this copy here. Totally indispensable!!! Original 1970 Japanese pressing!!!!! The legendary Xenakis box! Made only for French Radio use, all of Xenakis’ electronic works up to 1969! All housed in an incredibly deluxe package in a beautiful black cloth box, with a book that boggles my mind with all of its notes, biographical info and reproductions of Iannis’ scores . One of the very most sought-after artifacts of 20th-Century music, period. Beyond ESSENTIAL, this is simply a cornerstone of electronic music/composition history.
