Some major new albums feature the premiere recordings of choral music by Ukraine’s most prominent living composer, the revival of an ambitious and long-overlooked early work by Stockhausen (in a recording that’s not otherwise available online at press time), and some gripping and obsessive recent works by Alvin Curran. Couple this with a memorial retrospective for Pharoah Sanders, a look back 50 years to Miles Davis’ first live concert of the On The Corner era, and a survey of interesting new items from the US, Europe and Argentina, and there'll be enough to meet your creative and improvised music quota for the full week!
