- Summary
- Part 1 features music from an avant garde instrumental ensemble (dance music), featuring objects played as percussion instruments, a prepared piano (with objects on the strings), a cello (?), a flute, accordion, thumb harp (?) and other unidentifed instruments. Part 2 features a live rehearsal recording of an unidentified vocalist singing songs and reciting lines [excerpts of "Song of the center" and "Song of chaos" from Brecht's play "Caucasian chalk circle"], with an added accordion. (Caucasian chalk circle was performed in New York in April 1966. However, it is uncertain if the recordings were made in 1966.)
