Horizons Touched: The Music Of Ecm New
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
In 1969, producer Manfred Eicher founded a new record label, Edition of Contemporary Music, in Munich. More than 1,000 albums later, after many landmark recordings and new discoveries--including Keith Jarrett's best-selling "Koln Concert," Jan Garbarek's saxophone improvisations, and Estonian composer Arvo Part's profoundly moving minimalism--ECM stands as a model of musical independence unique in the history of the record industry. In this text, the authors present a multiple-perspective survey of the work of an extraordinary record company, tracing how ECM set new standards with meticulously realized productions of improvised and notated music, introduced hundreds of musicians to a wider public, and has changed the way music is played, recorded, and perceived. The book is in excellent condition, with external damage limited to minor wear and fraying on the outer edges of the dust jacket. Internally the pages are clean, the binding strong and the illustrations, a mix of black and white and full colour, are clear and colourful.
