Music reviews of Secrets of Synthesis

Music Review: Interesting Audio Documentary
Rating: 5 Stars

This CD is an audio documentary - written and narrated by Wendy Carlos. It is also a "hypertext-enhanced" CD (i.e., there is web content on the CD as well as Audio). The included web site contains a lot of supplemental material - such as her program notes and some other material.
I found it very interesting to learn how some of the music I have enjoyed over the years came to be and how it was created.
