“A one-sided LP documenting part of his Master’s Thesis, which entailed taking one of his electronic compositions, scoring it for a live ensemble and then conducting the performance. Recorded in 2005 at Mills College, the result was sublime. A gorgeous organic piece that references Feldman and Part and Melnyk as much as Kowalsky’s previous works.”  - Aquarius Records
