Gene Pritsker: William James's Varieties of Religious Experience

Read "William James's Varieties of Religious Experience" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose


William James's Varieties of Religious Experience is the long-awaited companion to Gene Pritsker's Varieties of Religious Experience Suite (Innova Recordings, 2010).

Borislove & Noizepunk: Cello Lounge

Read "Cello Lounge" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose


There are so few composers of contemporary music who have expanded its idiom and its language that they can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

International Street Cannibals Ensemble: Ballets & Solos

Read "Ballets & Solos" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose
