Etudes for the Sostenuto Pedal: No. 4, Pasaka par zenuar Brinumkokliti (by Lucija Garuta)
|
Baltic Tides | First Hand | 2025 | Garuta is a composer from Latvia / Unlike many components of modern pianos, the sostenuto pedal comes almost 150 years after Bartolomeo Cristofori’s original design. It is believed that the sostenuto pedal was first created in France by the Boisselot brothers in the 1840s. Fast forward to 1874, a patent was presented in the U.S.A. by Mr. Waldo Hanchett, William Steinway then claimed the patent and after some legal disputes, Steinway re-designed the pedal and forwarded a patent in 1875 for the sostenuto mechanism as we know it today. The reason this pedal is so misunderstood amongst pianists is that it is rarely used, even amongst the most professional of pianists, few either need or require it in order to create the intended effects of their work, however in the right hands (or feet) the sostenuto can create some truly unique tones. Pianos equipped with the sostenuto pedal allow for what some may call “selective sustain”. While the right pedal sustains all the notes on a piano, the sostenuto, in essence, holds down selective notes you wish to sustain. When it is depressed, the last note played continues to sound while all the other notes are damped. This is perhaps most commonly used in the bass end of the piano most of the time, allowing the pianist to overlay large bass tones with intricate pianissimo playing at the high end. | * | 0:35:37 (MP3 | Pop-up) | |||

| Saapato |
Ways To Be Remembered (feat. Kallie Lampel)
|
Decomposition: Fox On A Highway | Constellation Tatsu | 2025 | from bc page: While working a job that required frequent drives between Philadelphia and a remote warehouse to sort furniture, Hudson Valley-based artist Brendan Principato, AKA Saapato, noticed a fox on the side of the highway that had been struck dead by a car. Its vibrant red coat stood out against the asphalt. Day after day, the fox remained there, gradually transitioning from serene lifelessness to an unrecognizable state, a haunting reminder of nature’s cyclical processes. This encounter sparked a year-long exploration of decomposition—not merely as a biological process but as a metaphor for transformation, interconnectedness, and renewal. | 0:42:26 (MP3 | Pop-up) | ||||

The Great Learning | Deutsche Grammophon | 1971 | "The Great Learning" was a series of 7 “paragraphs” with text from the writings of Confucius and scored for large numbers of and both trained & untrained performers.

The NID Tapes: Electronic Music from India 1969-1972 (V/A) | State51 Conspiracy | 2023 | One night in 1969, 20,000 people gathered at the National Institute of Design (NID) in Ahmedabad, in the Indian state of Gujarat, to witness a vision of the future: the Moog synthesizer. An audiovisual spectacle called Soundscape was taking place across campus, and students and faculty members played the instrument while those in attendance marveled at the cutting-edge technology. American composer David Tudor had arrived in India earlier that year; during his 3-month residency, he installed the synthesizer, which had been shipped from NY in wooden crates, along with a Dual Ring Modulator, a Bode Frequency Shifter, and tape machines, and led workshops on the instrument. Like the European electronic music studios established in the 1950s, the NID’s space would become a hub for exploration, hosting students of various stripes to experiment with its tools’ endless capabilities. Artist Paul Purgas discovered, reassembled, and digitized its 19 tracks from 27 tape reels & this collection is the result. | 2:25:54 (MP3 | Pop-up) | ||||
