Instrumentals

Traversing the popular and the serious, Arthur composed 'Instrumentals' in 1974, inspired by the photography of his Buddhist teacher, Yuko Nonomura, as Arthur described, 'I was awakened, or re-awakened to the bright-sound and magical qualities of the bubblegum and easy-listening currents in American popular music'. Initially intended to be performed in one 48 hour cycle, 'Instrumentals' was in fact only performed a handful of times as a work in progress. 'Instrumentals Vol. 2' is a moving, deeply pastoral work performed by the CETA Orchestra and conducted by Julius Eastman. Also included are two of Arthur's most elusive compositions, 'Reach One', and 'Sketch for Face of Helen'.
