The Center For New Music is a resident performance ensemble within the University of Iowa's School of Music. Begun under a seed grant from The Rockefeller Foundation in 1966, the CNM is built around a group of skilled musicians serving as a nucleus for the performance of twentieth century music. As such, it functions as a laboratory and performance extension of the School of Music's composition area, and as a repertoire ensemble for the continued performance of new music in general.
The compositions presented on this recording are typical of the diversity of musical pursuits within the CNM's program, and as such are representative of its on-going project. All of these works have received numerous performances by the CNM, both in its home, Iowa City, and on tour throughout the Midwest.
This title, originally issued on the CRI label, is now available as a burn-on-demand CD (CD-R) or download in MP3/320, FLAC or WAV formats. CD-Rs come in a protective sleeve; no print booklet or jewel case included. Full liner notes are accessible via the link above.
