New Releases: ‘Almost Truths and Open Deceptions’; ‘Opus 1’
Friday, July 27th, 2012By Rebecca Schmid
The New York-based composer Annie Gosfield is best known for her synthesis of industrial sounds and other unconventional sampling into rock-inflected, yet often intricately wrought, compositions. As a fellow at the American Academy in Berlin last semester, she researched encrypted radio broadcasts from World War Two—part of a long-standing fascination with archaic technology and its unusual sounds—for a new violin work that will premiere at the Gaudemaus Muziekweek in the Netherlands this September.

Starkland ST237
Released April 28, 2023
Symphony in 18 parts presents 18 short pieces composed and played by Tim Brady. Ranging from 1’34” to 4’47”, they loosely comprise a single composite work, or “symphony.” With so many short pieces, it offers variety rather than the kind of unity that past composers sought in their symphonies, and that is its strength as well as its weakness.
Brady acknowledged the diversity of his music when he wrote that “each movement (of the Symphony in 18 Parts) has its own world, its own unique way of proceeding, but togethe
