Dries Tack - In Memoriam Alvin Lucier (2026) [Hi-Res]

Clarinetist Dries Tack presents a tribute album to minimalist pioneer Alvin Lucier, whose work focuses on the physics of sound and the art of deep listening. The release features two elegiac pieces exploring the acoustic phenomenon of "beats" generated by the interaction between a live instrument and a pure sine wave. The album demonstrates contrasting approaches to this concept: ranging from steady clarinet tones against a shifting frequency to fluid instrumental movements around a fixed pitch. This work highlights the enduring significance of Lucier's legacy in contemporary experimental music, transforming elemental sonic forms into a profound meditation on space and memory.
