     This CD is the first audio document of the collaboration
     between Cage and Cunningham, in expert performances by the
     musicians of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company. Two works have
     been chosen from different periods of their collaboration. In
     the infamous Cartridge Music, the performers make use of
     phonograph cartridges to play various objects, toys and
     furniture to create a cosmos of unusual sounds. 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 drun tracks, yielding an exotic and other-worldly
     atmosphere punctuated by solos from Kosugi.
