George Crumb: Songs, Drones and Refrains of Death (1991)
Texts by Federico García Lorca
Classical | EAC (APE, CUE & LOG) | 146 MB

“Classics Today
George Crumb’s Songs, Drones, and Refrains of Death (1968) is one of a series of works exploring texts by Spanish poet Federico García Lorca. Like so much of Crumb's mature music, it uses avant-garde performance techniques and unusual instruments (a mixture of percussion and electronics) to create a primal, elemental atmosphere. In this respect, the music stands in the tradition of Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring or Bartók's The Miraculous Mandarin, both works where an exceptionally refined and sophisticated technique is used unflinchingly to depict visions of mystery, evoke primitive rituals, and explore the ancient myths of our collective unconscious.
—David Hurwitz
