Choir – Grazer Studentenchor Directed By [Rehearsal And Musical Direction] – Clemens Gadenstätter, Hermann Nitsch Orchestra – Süd Ost Sinfonieorchester Thankful reissue of a 2xC90 set, originally released by Dieter Roth Verlag in 1985 in an artists' edition of 200 copies (can only imagine K7 as the poorest choice of frequency-preservation for such full-band and dynamic delicacy). Massive sprawling orchestral toneswell incorporating white noise generation, through-composed bodily desecration, various percussion instruments (traditional and invented), sunlight, near-silent refrains & other formal & tonal variations. Easily one of the finest recorded examples of Nitsch's directorial prowess. Massive. -- Hrvatski Die Geburt Des Dionysos Christos (1986)
