Audiophile quality pressing at Optimal in Germany. Radigue insisted that her music only be released on vinyl if the pieces would fit without being edited or cut. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eTriptych\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e met those requirements leaving room for an etching on the fourth side. Back to music after three years of silence. On the suggestion of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Ashley\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eDouglas Dunn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e commissioned \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eTriptych\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e from Eliane Radigue for choreography. Only the first part of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eTriptych\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e was staged at the premiere at the Dancehall\/Theatre of Nancy on February 27 1978. Recorded in the composer's studio in Paris. After the 1974 premiere of Adnos in San Francisco, a group of French students introduced Eliane Radigue to Tibetan Buddhism. When she returned to Paris, she began to explore this spirituality in depth, which slowed her musical production up until 1978. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eTriptych\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e marks her return to composition, and draws its inspiration from \"the spirit of the fundamental elements, water, air, fire, earth.\" Eliane Radigue likes to add that this has often been useful to her in her moments of research and transitions. This three-part composition, with its great humility and contemplative simplicity, heralded a new period of her work and was the first in a series of masterpieces inspired by Tibetan Buddhism: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eAdnos Trilogy\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1980), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eSongs of Milarepa\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1983) -- with the voices of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eLama Kunga Rinpoche\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and Robert Ashley, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eJetsun Mila\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1986), as well as the Trilogy of Death: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eKyema\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1988), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eKailasha\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1991) and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eKoume\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (1993).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forced Exposure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45168364388560,"sku":null,"price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/4201\/4416\/files\/radiguetriptych.jpg?v=1789268428","url":"https:\/\/www.grapefruitrecordclub.com\/products\/eliane-radigue-triptych-lp","provider":"Grapefruit Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
