Descending Moonshine Dervishes—Terry Riley

Description: RECORDED SEPEMBER 25, 1974 IN THE Neue Nationalgalerie, BERLIN AT METAMUSIK-FESTIVAL Terry Riley used a modified Yamaha YC-45D organ to which variable resistors have been added to facilitate tuning in just intonation. The Output of the organ is split into two channels with one part being recorded, then played back a fraction of a second behind the other. This permits a live performance in stereo and an interplay between the two parts. There is no pre-recorded material. The music is largely improvised around a pre-determined mode or scale upon which are composed certain fixed themes, layered passages of melodic figuration, examples of polyphony (inversion, retrograde, etc.) and polymetric juxtaposition over a fixed rhythmic cycle.
