Music by Jean Eichelberger Ivey for Voices, Instruments and Tape

This 1973 recording combines live performance and tape in order to “offer the best of both worlds, plus a dimension which neither live performer nor tape can reach alone.” There are four pieces on the album: “Terminus” and “Aldebaran” are each for a solo performer and tape, “Three Songs of Night” is for a large ensemble with intermittent tape, and “Cortege—for Charles Kent” is an entirely electronic piece. Liner notes contain a biography of composer Jean Eichelberger Ivey, biographies of the performers, Jacob Glick, Elaine Bonazzi, Catherine Rowe and Leonard Pearlman, and introductions and lyric transcriptions for the pieces.
