I must say I never listened to him, but Omaggio a Giacinto Scelsi by Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza is immense and makes me want to find his stuff.

would recommend starting with the Wyttenbach recording of Uaxuctum

& my favorite single disc overview is the one on Editions RZ

equipment demo of the Ondiola @ 4:00, including a brief snippet of someone recreating a layered Scelsi-esque drone with the instrument to suggest what his multitrack improvisations sounded like

sure hope we get to hear those someday

Recovering Giacinto Scelsi's Tapes

one year passes...

I don't suppose these have seen the light of day yet?

one year passes...

Can anyone recommend a good overview--that could mean book, compilation, or even online resource--of contemporary 'classical' music in this vein (as in frequently dissonant, occasionally difficult, dark orchestral stuff)? I'm a novice when it comes to this music, but I like what I've heard of Scelsi, Ligeti, some Messiaen, and rando odd stuff like Roland Kayn. I'm also way, way deep into the Tarkosvky soundtracks right now (and interested in hearing more Artemiev in general). But I have no real context, frame of reference, or sense of history (not that such things are necessary to enjoy anything, but indulge me). Little help?
