Speaker Swinging & Piano Mechanics

Composer: Gordon Monahan

A re-release of two of Monahan’s best-known early works: Piano Mechanics (First Prize at the 1984 CBC National Competition for Young Composers), and Speaker Swinging (his universally acclaimed, manually-operated sound installation). Both of these remastered pieces are awe-inspiring sound experimentations, possessing a visceral quality that is often lacking in more straight-forward tonal experiments. These are beautiful and moving pieces of new music. This disc is the first of three releases dedicated to Gordon Monahan’s compositions — with upcoming Grasslands and New and Used Furniture Music.
