Group 180 Hungaroton SLPX 12545 /1983/
Group 180 (180-as Csoport in Hungarian) was a Hungarian ensemble dedicated to the performance of new music, active from 1978 until 1990. The group achieved recognition for their performances and recordings of contemporary music in the minimal style. Group 180’s membership included several young Hungarian composers (among them László Melis and Tibor Szemz?), whose works formed an important part of the ensemble’s repertoire. This brought the group prominence as one of the preeminent European new music ensembles, and brought international attention to the emerging trend of Hungarian minimalism.
1. Szemz? Tibor - Water-Wonder
2. Steve Reich - Music for Pieces of Wood
3. Melis László - Etude for Three Mirrors
4. Frederic Rzewski - Coming Together
5. Frederic Rzewski - Attica
The Rzewski pieces on here are hidden gems of 20th century music. "Attica" is as soaring and stirring as the best film scores (see: Nyman), "Coming Together" is as wonderfully stubborn as the best minimalism you know.
Notes in English,German and Hungarian on insert sheet.
