AGP126 continues our series of electronic compositions from the USA with works by Charles Dodge, who made a big splash in the 1970s as one of the earlier composers using computers to generate electronic sounds. His Earth's Magnetic Field established his reputation and is still his best known work (it is available in a compilation CD on CRI records).

The first track is a realization of Cascando, a radio play by Samuel Beckett, using a combination of natural and computer-synthesized voice sounds to represent the different players, accompanied in places by computer-generated electronic sounds. The effect is fascinatingly bleak if you have the patience for it. The other tracks are respectively for trumpet and tape, instrumental ensemble (without electronics, but I figured I'd throw it in), and computer-generated sounds.
