Three indispensable pieces for voice(s) and tape composed in the 1960's and released on Wergo's great "Studio Reihe Neuer Musik" experimental music series in the 70's. With insert.

condition (record/cover): NM / NMInsert included. | This iconic collection of works by Italian avant-garde composer Luigi Nono represents a powerful fusion of serialism, electronic innovation, and political commitment.  La Fabbrica Illuminata (1964): Composed for soprano and four-channel magnetic tape, this work is a searing critique of industrial exploitation. It juxtaposes live vocals with recorded factory noises and workers' voices from the Italsider plant in Genoa. Ha Venido, Canciones Para Silvia (1960): A more lyrical, transparent serialist work for soprano and a six-voice soprano chorus. It sets the poetry of Antonio Machado as a delicate "puzzle song" for his daughter, Silvia. Ricorda Cosa Ti Hanno Fatto in Auschwitz (1966): An intense electroacoustic piece originally derived from Nono's incidental music for Peter Weiss's play The Investigation. It serves as a haunting memorial to the Holocaust, utilizing processed voices and choral textures.
