About the Artist
Dent has been assembling freeform sound collages since 1992. They are the result of informal collaborations by Jonathan Segel and Victor Krummenacher with Dave and Anne Costanza and whoever else might be around. Recording usually takes place in New Mexico, with editing and additional recording in small home studios in California. Influences include Can, The Basement Tapes, ethnic and folk musics as well as elctronica and turntablism. The most ecelectic hodgepodge of styles you can imagine with a dark soul... Band Members: MC Salmon
Dr. Geronimo Firebrain
Stands-Naked-In-Moonlight
Grandma Wolf
Laura NW

Album Description
The difference between weirdness and art-ness, a free form psychedelic collection of music assembled by Magnetic owner and former Camper Van Beethoven viloinist Jonathan Segel. Features appearances by the alter egos of Victor Krummenacher, and the Lords of Howling Dave and Anne Costanza.

5 out of 5 stars Thank you Hyperion for taking a chance on this unusual and brilliant composition........2007-05-07

I love this CD and I rate it 5 stars. However, it is a composition that defies any form of rating system, as it is so unlike anything else out there. If the word 'Alternative' were ever to be used appropriately, it would be for the great Karlheinz Stockhausen. What is remarkable about this recording is that there is nothing heard other than human voices. I am so thankful for Hyperion records for releasing these sorts of works that most companies would dimiss as unmarketable. While it may take a while to get really into Stimmung, something will grab you right away. It's just so totally unlike anything alse you have ever heard.

5 out of 5 stars A great TwenCen work.......2007-02-01

I bought this a couple of years ago and it has remained a strong favourite of mine. Songcircle sing this work with great style and commitment and make the harmonic singing sound very beautiful. The work features all the things we know and love about Stockhausen, including the composer's whimsical sense of humour.

I strongly recommend this disc even to those who are not normally fans of TwenCen music.

This work, Carré, Gruppen and Mantra [also by Stockhausen] are amongst my favourites at the moment.

What a fascinating composer is Herr Stockhausen!

5 out of 5 stars A lovely composition by a true musical pioneer..........2006-11-04

I listen to every Stockhausen recording I can find. This is one of my favorites. For someone new to Stockhausen's music, this may be good place to start.

5 out of 5 stars spiritual ascent for Stockhausen.......2003-03-21

Stockhausen explains in the liner notes that composing this piece was part of a very spiritually moving experience for him in Aztec ruins. He liked looking at repeating forms ruins that were slightly out of phase, & for me, this music is alternately the slow grass, the carved stones, & the clean air. This whole vocal piece moves fluidly with a basic structure of repetition & electronic innovation. The music, too, is so unique! Stockhausen really is an incredibly, amazingly creative person, a great composer. This piece, with its own personal sense of coherence, is different from much other work of his.

5 out of 5 stars dependable manipulation of voice.......2002-05-18

Stockhausen's career was one of monumental & protean experimentation. Who might have expected that the man who composed music as chaotic as Kontakte would also compose music with notes as solidly organised as Stimmung? My friend who is a fellow fan of Stockhausen thinks of Stimmung as "his silly piece." It's so accessible that it's very fun too -- unusual for him. Stimmung was inspired by time Stockhausen spent in Mexico where he would sit on a rock for hours staring at ruins, noticing how they were slightly out pf phase.... He also experienced being different indigenous peoples or a Spaniard & relived their religious ceremonies, which could be quite cruel, but (as he wrote) "religious cruelty isn't in Stimmung, only sounds."

5 out of 5 stars excellent overview of contemporaneous classic music.......2007-03-22

excellent overview of contemporaneous classic music.

Should be continued, plenty more 20th-century composers to be discovered.

5 out of 5 stars For the price you can't lose.......2007-02-21

This 2 cd set consists of, as the title indicates, various 20c pieces or movements from the Naxos catalog. Sound quality is uniformly high, although for some such as Stockhausen's it's not clear if that's good or bad. What is excellent is the variety of the collection--some familiar (Debussy), others not, some pretty, others intentionally weird. Few will find every piece to his or her taste, but many listeners who do not spend much time on 20c music will find something to like. Overall, a great introduction to a period of much off-putting, yes, but also much compelling music.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Incredible treasure!.......2007-05-07

As a lifelong fan of Heifetz, I was thrilled to discover this newly released recording of
live performances. Many selections have clear, beautiful recorded sound, and the playing is
truly unbelievable. There is a certain special electricity in these live performances that is
astounding, and any lover of violin playing, string playing,
instrumental playing, or music making should check out this treasure. A few of the tracks have a muted, muffled quality,
but there are enough well-recorded tracks to make the CD well worth the purchase price. Even the muffled tracks are worthwhile because
Heifetz's extraordinary sound and playing comes through even with some inferior fidelity in a few of the tracks.

2 out of 5 stars content vs. sound quality.......2004-09-25

the recording has a representative collection of Heifitz's concert standards, as well as some more obscure works. even after digital remastering, the poor sound quality detracts from the enjoyment of the pieces. apparently the original performances were for broadcast in the 1940's and early 50's. it sounds like someone had a recorder in front of the radio.

should be of interest to collectors and music students, not audiophiles. the more popular pieces are available on other recordings; the others seem pretty rare.

    14. Im Weissen Rossl: Mein Liebeslied Muss Ein Walzer Sein - Melitta Muszely/Heinz Hoppe

    Amazon.com

    In 1975, Austrian composer Robert Stolz was in Berlin to conduct a recording of his music. During the session he was taken ill and died, two months short of his 95th birthday. It was the end of an incredible career as both conductor and composer. This double CD, issued to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his death, contains performances of his music played over the years by the Kaiserslautern Radio Orchestra under a number of conductors. It features a broad cross-section of his work, ranging from the hit song "Servus Du," written in 1911, to music he wrote for the 1954 Vienna Ice Review. Operetta, film music (he won an Oscar for Spring Parade), songs, marches, and overtures--the selection gives a good idea of Stolz's range, despite some occasionally bland arrangements. Much more important is the second CD of Stolz himself conducting the orchestra in a selection of songs and arias. "Servus Du" is again included, sung this time by the smoky-voiced Linne Augustin, who demonstrates just what a fine composer Stolz was. --Richard Fawkes
