180g Audiophile Vinyl Double LP!
Prolific recording artist with a growing discography of over 100 often groundbreaking CDs to his name, Brilliant Classics mainstay and promoter par excellence of Minimal Music Jeroen van Veen now finds himself and the music he champions so effectively the focus of six concurrent Brilliant Classic audiophile, 180g 33 1/3 rpm double LP releases, amongst the labels first forays into the reawakened vinyl market.
Pianist Jeroen van Veen performs "Slow Music" by Erik Satie on this 180g Audiophile Double LP. Erik Satie's music remains as eccentric as it was when composed in the early 20th century. Bizarre, anti-romantic, and ironic, it stands in sharp contrast with the grandiloquent outpourings of the Late Romantics or the hyper sensitive drawings of the impressionists.
In his performance of "slow" piano music, pianist Jeroen van Veen stretches the concept of slowness to its extreme, creating a hallucinatory effect, a kind of Minimial Music avant la lettre. Satie's music appeals to audiences well beyond the traditional classical boundaries, and this issue on 180g audiophile vinyl is an attractive bonus for any Satie fan.
