The first AGP installment features the compositions of Josef Anton Riedl. A few tracks are entirely electronic but most are electroacoustic, involving sounds produced by a number of sources. In a few tracks, recordings are made as performers produce sounds by manipulating paper, glass, water, etc., and then another layer of sound is added as the same performers respond to the previously recorded sounds. The acoustic recordings are astonishing in their clarity and intimacy, and the timbres produced by these objects are often quite unexpected. The first track comes from volume 8 of Zeitgenössische Musik in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (Bestellnummer DMR 1022-1024). It was recorded by Saarländischen Rundfunks in 1982 and features Lorenzo Ferrero, Stefan Gabanyi, Johannes Göhl, Michael Hirsch, Robyn Schulkowsky, Florian Tielebier-Langenscheidt. The group was conducted by Josef Anton Riedl. The remaining tracks make up Wergo release WER 60066. The performers include Simone Rist and Nicolaus A. Huber (track 2), Mike Lewis and Michael W. Ranta (track 4), and Johannes Göhl (track 9). The included text file is a transcription of the liner notes from both releases, and contains biographical material on the composer as well as descriptions of individual compositions.
