Description

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.
AGP1-84 are now available for direct download in the archive at www.avantgardeproject.org
AGP85-89 and other recent AGP installments are also available at http://thepiratebay.org/user/loudav
=======================================
AGP90 is the third of four featuring works by the British composer Harrison Birtwistle. Born in 1934, he came of age with Peter Maxwell Davies and Alexander Goehr, and like them studied in Manchester. Birtwistle's music belongs to no clearly identifiable school. It is characterized by a fine ear for both harmony and orchestration, and some rather unusual approaches to musical structure. AGP88-90 are transcribed from a number of CDs, and are provided through the generosity of the same AGP partisan that programmed AGP87. AGP91 comprises all of the out-of-print works by Birtwistle that I could find in my stacks. The torrent includes a PDF file with scans of the CD and LP booklet notes describing the works featured in all four Birtwistle installments.

NOTE: To the best of my knowledge, these recordings are currently out of print. If you know otherwise, please let me know ASAP, as I do not wish any artists to be deprived of the royalties that they so richly deserve.
