La Monte Young - The Well-Tuned Piano

Young is generally recognized as the first minimalist composer. His works have been included among the most important and radical post-World War II avant-garde, experimental, or drone music. Both his proto-Fluxus and "minimal" compositions question the nature and definition of music and often stress elements of performance art. One of the best works by one of the most important composers of the 20th century; unfortunately, copies usually go for over $500 now. Originally on Classical Connections. Song list: CD 1: 1.
