Spanning four decades of creative work, this anthology includes all of the text scores created by Pauline Oliveros since 1971. First released at the end of a year-long celebration of Oliveros' 80th birthday in 2012, the anthology features group and solo meditations, as well as performance pieces for ensembles and soloists: an invaluable resource for performers, scholars, adults, children, musicians and nonmusicians alike. These works demonstrate the humor, brilliance, and inclusiveness that is central to Oliveros' Deep Listening philosophy and music.
