5.0 out of 5 stars Wuorinen! Wuorinen!, November 1, 2000

By A Customer

The piece by Charles Wuorinen justifies the cost of this disc. Both the piece and the performance are white hot. Robert Morris' piece is fascinating, and Richard Festinger's piece is great fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot Band, October 25, 2000

By	Roger Clemens (Barton, Vermont) - See all my reviews

New Millenium is the best Pierrot + percussion group on the planet. (A Pierrot Ensemble consists of clarinet, flute, violin, cello, piano.) On this disc their playing soars and much of the music on this disc is excellent, all of it eminently worthwhile. The piece by Festinger is a wonderful as is the Robert Morris work. While I'm not a fan of Feldman, I understand where he's coming from and this performance has to be the best performance of this work. Wuorinen's piece is, as I've come to expect, mind-blowing in the very best sense of that expression.

When's the next New Millenium disc coming out?!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Lively modern compilation, well performed, February 8, 2000

By	Anonymous reviewer (NY State United States) - See all my reviews

I got this CD because it includes Feldman's excellent "I Met Heine...", but am happy with all of the lively performances. The Wuorinen and Cage pieces are also noteworthy. I'm less familiar with Festinger and Morris, but their pieces are quite good, and much more than just "filler". The disc is recommendable, but only to confirmed fans of contemporary music, since it's either "New York School" (Feldman, Cage), or 12-tone (Wuorinen, Festinger, Morris).
