AMG Review of Lux Aeterna, for 16-Voice Mixed Chorus (1966)
"Blue" Gene Tyranny
All Music GuidePerformed by the North German Radio Chorus conducted by H. Franz. The famed "sound of the monolith" in Stanley Kubrick's film "2001" was lifted from "Lux Aeterna" here in a lovely performance... a surface of sustained and overlapping clusters of multi-timbral quality that suggest universality without "bigness."
