Product details

This product forms part of the following series: Listening Room.

Broadcast on "The Listening Room' on ABC Classic FM, on 17 November 1997, as part of Australian Music Week.

Works by Leak, Rigney, and AdrenaLentil are in 'Earshots' series of 3-minute audio clips commissioned by The Listening Room.

'Edwin Armstrong overture': composition, sample editing and performance by Robert Iolini. 'Oradio": drums, string cans and two wild AM radios create wonderful real-time rhythms. 'Afternoon tea series': electro-acoustic composer Adam uses advanced digital sound manipulation techniques to explore the mundane rituals of tea cups, sugar bowls and coffee machines. 'Arcana from lost cults': a perfect white cloud, in the form of a line, divides the sky into two irreconcilable parts. 'The cosmic joke': techno rhythms drive the narrative in this pulsating piece. 'Unreal fair': work for koto, percussion and voice (Satsuki Odmura: koto; Philip South: percussion; Mara Kiek: vocals), introduced by the composer. Chris Abrahams gives a performance of his latest work for piano.
