GEORGE CRUMB (b.1929): Eleven Echoes of Autumn (Echoes I) for Violin, Alto Flute, Clarinet and Piano, An Idyll for the Misbegotten (Images III) for Amplified Flute and Percussion, Federco's Little Songs for Children for Soprano, Flutes and Harp, Vox Balaenae for Amplified Flute, Amplified Cello and Amplified Piano.

Description: The hauntingly beautiful score of the 1971 Vox Balaenae is one of Crumb's best-known works. This new release offers three other similarly evocative pieces, two from 1986 (with the children's songs - from Lorca - employing all four types of flute) and Echoes an even earlier (1965) example of the composer's bewitchingly avant-garde style. New Music Concerts Ensemble; Robert Aitken (flutes).
