RELEASE DATE

2003 release. Two CDs for the price of one. Much has been written to guide listeners through the course of a preconceived form. Although
Michael J. Schumacher
's music is distinctly his own it has been inspired by
David Tudor
and
Morton Feldman
as well as
La Monte Young
. Like their music it is about hearing sounds in themselves, about allowing the ear to register sonorities and then the hearing imagination may go to work, navigating amongst temporal realities and imaginary spaces, negotiating between a sense of control and perceived randomness, stasis and movement, finitude and limitlessness, Schumacher thrives on those creative tensions. At its most personal and expansive his singular music has the capacity to convey "intimate immensity."
Room Piece
provides a unique solution and musical experience in reference to "the room." Generated by a specific method and possessing a decidedly emotional character,
Room Piece
is not merely "ambient music" but creates a bridge between the "eventfulness" heard in
Cage
-ian and serial music, and the new American drone music that has arisen intuitively to create the sound of a vibrant universe with rich interior activity.
