We should probably have a thread on modern Masses. There's Arvo Part's De Profundus, David Hyke's album Harmonic Meetings pretty much has the form, Daniel Lentz's "Missa Umbrarum"...there's a Lebanese female Christian chant album entitled Divine Rites credited to Vox...
― derelict, Thursday, 8 January 2009 21:23 (fifteen years ago) link
Though that last album (Vox - Divine Rites) isn't really in mass form. Its rather similar to the Jocelyn Montgomery & David Lynch album of modern Hildegard interpretations, Lux Vivens, only with an oriental cast.

well start the thread, most of what I know about modern choral music is all secular & depraved so it'd be a nice break
the online samples of that 'Cosmic Celebration' record are beautiful! they really pulled it off, seems like

okay, obviously i don't read carefully enough. no need to send them my 40 bucks for this:
"DVD of a slide show of the Cambridge 1983 Production with some slides from others, with an introduction, and two Cable T.V. interviews and a live performance piece from the production: $40, plus shipping"
i was hoping they had the cosmic cameras rolling in 1977 :(

wow thanks for reminding me about stuart dempster. i really dig 'underground overlays', and i agree that calling him 'new age' is a stretch.
i saw him talk with ramon sender, morton subotnick, and don buchla (inventor of the buchla box- he even brought it along!), among others, when the book about the san francisco tape music center came out a few months back. i guess dempster played trumpet tones in the broadway tunnel as a part of sender, ken dewey, and anthony martin's "city scale" piece/installation in 1963. i guess the piece required audience members to be shuttled around town to experience things like said tunnel, a woman in a storefront window singing debussy, a 'book returning' ceremony at city lights, light projections on to the side of a wells fargo, and a lot more as depicted in the super abstract score in the book

Unarius is absolutely still active, they have a booth every year at the Whole Earth Expo. Video artist / scholar Nate Boyce took Drew & Martin & I on a expedition / homage trip to buy DVDR transfers of their films, and they were good people. The late 70's / early 80's was the heyday for their video production team, they're mostly recycling the effects from their early films, but anyone who's seen those early films agree that they are unconditional classics.

This thread just made me check to see if Musical Starstreams radio program is still extant; it is! http://www.starstreams.com/
Everytime I hear some sort of "spacy tinkles" music on public radio, I always put on my narcoleptic announcer voice and make up artists and titles: "Fromm the CD... Voyage of the Healer... that's Celestial ... Illumination... here on Musical... Starstreams...
