Having little to do with issues of content and form, Christian Wolff's experimental works are more concerned with the ways music is created and received, and how the composer's conceptions are intimately tied to the performers' interactions and the listener's perceptions. Like his colleague John Cage, Wolff eschewed the rigors of post-Webernian serialism and instead wrote in an intuitive manner, avoiding systems and communicating more directly through raw sonorities and improvisation. Vol. 6 of the Edition Christian Wolff surveys works from 1962 to 1999, and covers a wide range of instrumental combinations and approaches, from the complex gestures of Kegama and the hyperactivity of Digger Song, to the conversational frankness of the vocal duets in Leaning Forward and the rustic fiddling of the Pieces (3) for violin and viola. Wolff's adventurous ideas are effectively shown in the four Exercises, where his concepts are worked out in short, digestible portions. Always attuned to Wolff's intentions and demands, the Barton Workshop makes his pieces sound fresh and vital, and recaptures some of the excitement this music generated at the height of the avant-garde. However, listeners should not take these performances as definitive, for that is an impossibility in Wolff's open-ended oeuvre. Mode's sound quality is consistently excellent throughout this varied double disc. ~ Blair Sanderson, All Music Guide

Newband emerged from the avant-garde of the 1970s and its daring explorations have helped fuel a movement devoted to new sonic possibilities. Microtonal works are a central part of the band's repertoire and each of the pieces on this CD represents aspects of several unconventional tuning systems. Harry Partch's haunting Daphne of the Dunes employs a plethora of invented instruments, most of them built by the composer. To achieve his extraordinary timbral palette, Partch used scales based on just intonation. The variation of pitches opens up a fantastic array of intervals, making even-tempered scales seem bland in comparison. James Pugliese's Freeze derives its sliding alto flute tones and heterophony from Native American singing, though without attempting to directly mimic that style. Dean Drummond's Different Drums for Different Strokes explores contrasts between electronic and acoustic drums, and the merging of sonorities extends the percussion's coloristic range in fascinating ways. Mathew Rosenblum's eclectic Circadian Rhythms crosses over tonal and stylistic boundaries to a precarious middle ground, where convention and the unorthodox uneasily coexist. The vibraphone-like Zoomoozophone is featured in Thelonious Monk's 'Round Midnight, though it is miked too closely, resulting in an unpleasant clanging blur. Otherwise, the disc's sound quality is superb. ~ Blair Sanderson, All Music Guide
