CD Reviews

Scotty Scott Scott Scott

Philippe Landry | Louisiana | 11/01/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's like Schoenberg called Xenakis and said "Hey! For some reason I'm not dead anymore and I want to work with you!" and Xenakis was like "Hell yeah!!"

Y'all know what I'm talk'n bout!"

DIsappointing

Rictus | 04/06/2008

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I like atonal twentieth century avant garde-classical, but this was a huge disappointment; no dramatic tension just quixotic meandering, which quickly dissipates without lingering."

Ballet Noise

Jesper Valgreen | 09/05/2008

(2 out of 5 stars)

"Scott and the London Sinfonietta produces some noise, somewhat - I'd say - reminiscent of Stockhausen, but noisier, for a ballet performance. No singing, and definitely not what you'd call song - but some people kind of like that. only 24 mins. playing time - and some people might like that."
