Free Music Notes for T??r: Magma
Free Music Review: Tuur is a master, this music is not
Hit: 3 Stars
I love Tuur and found this album to be his most recommended which is shcking considering it is the worst and I would favour any released on ECM over this. I did enjoy the three works accompanying the symphony 4 for percussion, but that work itself is pretty lame.
If you would like to hear why I consider Tuur one of the finest living composers-check out all of his ECM discs(proably Oxymoron last). The other three works on Magma will give you a better idea of what to expect and, at least I hope, the symphony 4 is not a tu(ur)n for the worst in this intersting and unique composers ouvre.
