"Metal Meditations is the culmination of many years experience and experiment with the properties of resonant metal objects, whether intended for music for not." Philip Corner. One side is taken from a 1974 performance at Merce Cunningham's studio, performed by David Behrman (electronics and performer) & others. There is also a 1975 performance with Bill Fontana and Corner ("long metal pipe with active microphone) as well as a short version from the Avant Garde Festival in Cambridge, MA, 1978.
