The scores presented on this 2-CD set cover 37 years of Christian Wolff's composing, and present many different musical surfaces and syntaxes. The early 'For 5 or 10 People' is a graphic score from Wolff's most experimental period. It is presented twice, once for 3 players and again for 10 players. Since the 1970's, Wolff has chosen songs from the political protest movement as starting material for many of his works. These authoritative performances are by The Barton Workshop and James Fulkerson, who have had a long tradition of playing Wolff's music. Mostly first recordings.
