Couple of suggestions: Gustav Mahler, Symphony No. 3 -- I'd strongly suggest the version conducted by Claudio Abbado, who has a flair for this type of music. John Cage, Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano -- there are many recordings, and you might even want more than one. Preparation turns the regular piano into an ensemble of gentle percussion. In some ways these pieces owe much to Satie. --Mark __ <http://www.xnet.com/~mkolmar/BurningRome> < MPEG & RA audio clips > Forthcoming CD SENSELESS on Mindfield Records MINDCD03 Cathartium 14 "The electricity is no better off than on."
