Conlon Nancarrow: Piece nº1 for Small Orchestra (1943)
Conlon Nancarrow (October 27, 1912 -- August 10, 1997) was a composer who lived and worked in Mexico for most of his life. He became a Mexican citizen in 1955.
Nancarrow is best remembered for the pieces he wrote for the player piano. He was one of the first composers to use musical instruments as mechanical machines, making them play far beyond human performance ability. He lived most of his life in relative isolation, not becoming widely known until the 1980s.
Played by Continuum.
