2008年に再プレスされた24ビットリマスター版!!オリジナルは1991年に実験音楽の老舗Modeより発表されたジョン・ケージの傑作[Music For Merce Cunningham]。ケージとマース・カニングハムの最初のオーディオドキュメントであり、ライブエレクトロニクスにDavid Tudor、アンプリファイバイオリン&バンブーフルートに小杉武久、パーカッション&テープにMichael Puglieseという超豪華面子による演奏。土製のポットをポコポコと鳴らしつつ徐々に激シブなライブエレクトロニクスが混入してくる全55分のエキゾチックな異世界[Five Stone Wind]、そして古典作[Cartridge Music]ではフォノグラフカートリッジを使用しおもちゃや家具の物体雑音を点描的に放ち続けます。大推薦。

2008 repress, featuring a 24-bit Hi-Definition remaster; originally released in 1991. Volume 4 in the Music of Cage series. The first audio document between John Cage & Merce Cunningham. It includes a 55-minute piece called "Five Stone Wind" performed by David Tudor (live electronics), Takehisa Kosugi (amplified violin, live electronics, bamboo flute) and Michael Pugliese (clay pots and tapes) as well as a 19-minute version of the classic "Cartridge Music" (same 3 performers, "using phonograph cartridges to play various objects, toys and furniture to create a cosmos of unusual sound" ). Originally issued in 1991 and out of stock for a few years, this long awaited reissue has been remastered from the original session tapes in hi-resolution 96khz/24-bit. The result is a more detailed and tactile recording with greater dynamic range. The booklet is presented in a new layout with rescanned photos and new French and German translations of the original texts written by Cage, Tudor, Kosugi, Pugliese and the MCDC's David Vaughan.
The 53 minute long Five Stone Wind is percussive in nature. The basic sounds from David Tudor are derived from recordings of earth vibrations which trigger the electronics and treatments. The unique percussion sound is created from hand-made clay pots modeled after African "Udu" drums, which can make sounds from room-shaking bass to high pitched ceramic slaps. Live percussion is added to eight pre-recorded drum tracks, yielding an exotic and other-worldly atmosphere punctuated by solos from Kosugi.
