condition (record/cover): NM/NM Gatefold sleeve. A profound exploration of sacred music by one of Italy's most enigmatic composers! Giacinto Scelsi (1905-1988), whose work remained largely unknown until late in his career, created a unique compositional language centered on microtonal explorations and the inner life of single sounds. This rare Fy release presents his sacred works, revealing Scelsi's deeply spiritual approach to composition. Moving beyond traditional harmonic structures, these pieces inhabit a space of ritual and contemplation, with Scelsi's characteristic focus on timbral transformation and sustained resonance. His mystical investigations - influenced by Eastern philosophies and personal spiritual practices - produced music of remarkable intensity and otherworldly beauty.
