She seems to have a real feel for the material. I am gradually increasing my collection of contemporary composers; this particular version is highly regarded by mavens of classical music and audiophiles. I am neither but was... |

| 10. |  | Wolfgang Rihm: Dis-Kontur; Lichtzwang; Sub-Kontur from Hanssler Classics Price: $13.47 Customer Review: The 22-year old Wolfgang Rihm stunned Germany's avant music world when his 40-minute work MORPHONIE was performed at the Donaueschinger Musiktage, the long-running avant music festival, in 1974. A work of strong expressionism written in 1972, it launched Rihm's credo -- "Music must be full of... |

| 18. |  | Rihm: Tutuguri from Hanssler Classics Price: $15.17 Customer Review: When Wofgang Rihm emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s on the German contemporary music scene, he was categorized by the critics in a movement which they dubbed "new simplicity", and whose other most prominent members were Manfred Trojahn and Hans-Jurgen von Böse. Seen from today, almost... |

| 20. |  | Compassion: A Tribute to Yehudi Menuhin by Philip Glass Price: $2.15 Customer Review: I agree that this collection of 15 20th-Century music is best taken in portions, rather than its entirety. I enjoy many of the compositions more than others, but on the whole the selections are engaging. I didn't care for the Glass work, "Echorus", but that's my own personal prejudice (this was the... |

| 29. |  | Wolfgang Rihm: Chiffre-Zyklus from Cpo Records Price: $21.07 Customer Review: This is not shy music. Rihm has not created a sound world that the initiate must find his way into. This is a sound world that reaches out and whacks you. The cycle evolved from what had been a standalone piece (Chiffre 1). Over more than a decade, it grew into a suite of ten pieces with varied... |
