Piece for Piano and Tape (Goeyvaerts)

Karel Goeyvaerts's Piece for Piano and Tape (Stuk voor piano en geluidsband) was composed in 1964. It explores the potential relations between a live piano performance and a manipulated recording, distributing them around a central axis in the manner of his 1950s serial music's procedures.[1] Goeyvaerts originally thought of synchronizing both parts, but he subsequently decided to contrast the different natures of the fixed recording and the live performance.[2]

gollark: Wait, new rules?
gollark: My existing setup: basically a lazy giant active-cooling-based TBU fuel thing.
gollark: Well, yes, exactly, there are steam-based generators in my modpack, but I have no idea about compatibility.
