Edition RZ reissues The Winds Rise In The North by American composer Harley Gaber, originally released on Titanic Records in 1976. Interpreters: Linda Cummiskey (violin); Malcolm Goldstein (violin); Kathy Seplow (violin); Stephen Reynolds (viola); David Gibson (violoncello). Screeching, minimal string-dronology of the highest order and an absolute classic. Questions: How endlessly the heavens turn. And yet the earth remains at rest. Do the sun and the moon quarrel as to their positions? Who rules over and orders all these things? By whom are they in harmony? Who effortlessly causes and maintains them? Is there, perhaps, some hidden tension that prevents them from being other than as they are? Must the heavenly bodies move as they do, powerless to do otherwise? Look how the clouds drop the rain! And how the rain rises again to form the clouds! Who moves them to this abundance? Who effortlessly produces the primary orb and stimulates it? The winds rise in the north and blow to the east and west. Others move upward uncertainly. Whose breath moves them? Who effortlessly causes them to blow? What is the cause? --Chuang Tzu
