Long Play Festival 2024: Peter Adriaansz's 'Environments,' performed by Ensemble Klang

Dutch composer Peter Adriaansz is renowned for creating a lush immersive sound world to consider profound existential questions. With Environments, featuring the New York debut of Ensemble Klang (The Netherlands), Adriaansz sets texts from Robert Pirsig's classic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and beat philosopher Alan Watts to a spatially orchestrated and unusually tuned score for guitars, winds, vibraphones, Bayan, and synthesizers.
