5.0 out of 5 stars david tudor: brilliant creator of new worlds, May 31, 2003
With Rainforest, his breakthrough piece, he was experimenting with the idea of getting sounds from objects, not just speakers, by running electricity through them.

I feel like this amazing piece exists phenomenally between & outside the argument of complete control music & aleatory. The music comes from a real physical space, completely locked within that large space the composer built, so it has that controlled structure, but once it's going the composer doesn't have any more to do with how it acts, how exactly the objects respond to the electricity. If you ask me, this is one of the most pivotal electronic pieces of the 20th century.
