Re: Prelude to the 21st Century (DSD Recording)

It features modernist compositions by Japanese composers. They are really well crafted compositions, in the vein of Boulez, Elliot Carter and Milton Babbit. The performer is a real virtuoso and a top name percussionist in contemporay music circles, especially on the mallet instruments. Japanese composers have a special inclination towards using the Marimba and Vibraphone, and I had the special chance to hear many of these subtlly expressive and finely honed compositions at Suntory Hall Tokyo when I was there for a Japan Federation of Composers recital last March. If you enjoy modern music, the quality of the performances, the compositions and the recording are unlikely to pose an issue.
