With Discreet Music (1975), Music for Airports (1978), and Thursday Afternoon (1985), Brian Eno invented a new genre of music: ambient music he defined as being able to accommodate many levels of attention while listening without forcing a particular one; it must be as ignorable as it is interesting.
This version performed and arranged by the Dedalus Ensemble goes beyond what we expect from it. Founded in 1996 by Didier Aschour, the ensemble is a contemporary music ensemble based in Toulouse. Their repertoire includes works by minimalist classics: Christian Wolff, Phill Niblock, Frederic Rzewski, Tom Johnson, Moondog or Philip Glass.
