The 1994-95 crop of electroacoustics has arrived! DISContact! II, under the theme Towards a Better World, contains 51 gems, each no longer than three minutes; these are examples of the latest electroacoustic music from the members of the CEC.
East to West – Your itinerary: From Montréal, heading west, by way of Toronto, London, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary, and Banff, you reach the west coast of Canada- Vancouver. After a brief side trip to visit our neighbors to the south, you cross the Pacific to Japan. Then you move on to Europe: Germany and Spain! Of course, you can always leave the flying up to random play on your compact disc player.
Bon voyage and happy listening,
DISContact! II Committee
