| “ | Crumb is a “minimalist” composer with a terse and intense musical language. He is generally a miniaturist who writes works with a programmatic character. He tends to use unusual instruments and combinations, including folk instruments and electric instruments, or to use familiar instruments, such as the piano, in an unusual way. His music has strong mystical, religious overtones. In listening to this CD, Crumb*s music struck me as similar in spiritual theme and outlook to the music of the American composer Alan Hovhaness, but with a great deal more musical rigor and complexity.
