Music reviews of Milton Babbitt: An Elizabethan Sextette
Music Review: Amazingly rich sound world
Rating: 5 Stars
Babbitt's music is very special in that it requires complete immersion while never ceasing to be graceful and uniquely brilliant in its interplay of pitches, rhythms and timbres. The performances are exemplary: I particularly recommend 'Vision and Prayer' sung by Bethany Beardsley to the accompaniment of electronic sound. Written during the genre's infancy, it is a work of scintillating originality, and despite its primitive sound resources, is yet to be matched in newer electronic works. I do also recommend Babbitt's 'Philomel' on the New World Records label.
