Does anyone had the opportunity to purchase Budd's latest? Any opinions? Seems he may not yet have retired, as this one was completed in 2008, I believe.

Cheers

  Haven't seen/heard it yet but I stumbled across "Luxa" in a local store. Any opinions on this one? Thanks.

    I have not got Luxa, yet. From what I understand, it is more keyboard focussed than some of his more ambient works. I got into Budd for his ambient works, but have come to really appreciate his spare, melodic, nuanced piano works - I very much like his style. I very much like Music for Three Pianos, though it is far too short at about 25 mins, IIRC.
    
    Reviewers and purchasers/listener seem to have differing views on some of Budd's works. I put this down to the generally different expectations of each group. Reviewers thought Luxa to be moderately good; owners seem to love it. If you don't own many of his more keyboard-focussed works, I'd say give it a go.
    
    Apologies for the rant.
