Terry Riley - ’The Dream’ for justly tuned piano - Live in Rome 1999

Commissioned by the Kanagawa Foundation, ’The Dream’ is a lengthy improvisatory piece for solo piano in just intonation. It is something of a sequel to Terry Riley’s 1985 cycle ’The Harp of New Albion’, also for justly tuned piano. This recording is from the work’s premiere performance where Riley joined Philip Glass, Michael Harrison, and Charlemagne Palestine in an evening concert of selections of each composer’s music for piano. Performed by the composer. Recorded live at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome, Italy on November 20th 1999.
