COLUMNS OF AIR – Robert Dick and Jaron Lanier

Future Tickle Music  (2003)

Virtual reality pioneer and multi-instrumentalist Jaron Lanier and Robert Dick craft a program of lyrical and exotic duos.  Lanier plays pipe organ, piano, Gu Zheng (a Chinese harp), Clavichord, Oud, baritone 12 string guitar, contrabassoon and more.  Dick plays flute, sometimes with his revolutionary “Glissando Headjoint”, bass flutes in C and F and piccolo.   Santur virtuoso and singer Alan Kushan joins the duo in two pieces.

Terry Riley hails this recording as “important music”.
