Description

Lion’s Eye for Gamelan was commissioned in 1985 by Barbara Benary for Gamelan Son of Lion. Lion’s Eye for Synthesizer was commissioned concurrently by Neil Rolnick for iEAR Presents at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Both versions were performed in 1985. The intention to combine both pieces in order to expand the tempo range of the Gamelan was first realized in May of 1989 in performances by the Berkeley Gamelan in Oakland and San Francisco, California under the direction of Daniel Schmidt. This version of Lion’s Eye is recorded on this disc.
