** condition: NM/EX ** The three compositions on this recording feature the bandoneon, a polyphonic, metal-reed instrument of the concertina family. “Mesa”, originally commissioned by the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, is performed here by David Tudor on bandoneon while Gordon Mumma is deconstructing in a East Bionic Kosugi way working on the cybersonic console. “Pontpoint” utilizes the bandoneon and a bowed psaltery, a multi-stringed zither, the sounds of both instruments being modified in the most refined way with ‘cybersonic’ procedures developed by the composer. “Fwyyn”, a bandoneon duo by Pauline Oliveros and Gordon Mumma, is the only work on the recording in which the natural acoustical sound of the instrument is heard… and it’s as blissful as you can only imagine in your wildest dreams.
