This LIMITED EDITION double disc package features a stereo CD and a 4.1 surround sound mix on Blu-ray Disc with Hi-Res audio at 24bit/96khzOut. This is the premiere recording (2021) of composer Daniel Corral's Circle Limit III, a spatialized composition for 8 electric guitars.

Ever wonder what a M.C. Escher woodcut sounds like? California composer Daniel Corral figured 8 electric guitars would do the trick, and the Los Angeles Electric 8 premiered the piece in front of Frank Gehry's iconic Disney Concert Hall to celebrate the L.A. Philharmonic's 100th birthday. Now we have a studio recording where the Los Angeles Electric 8 do for the ears what Escher does for the eyes.

Los Angeles Electric 8: Nicholas Deyoe, Gabriel Deutsch, Marc Nimoy, Felix Salazar, Eric Kiersnowski, Jeremy Kerner, JohnPaul Trotter, Andrew Lee.

Reviews

About the composition Circle Limit III: ...a stunning wall of sound as aural complement to Gehry's steel...

Mark Swed (Los Angeles Times) (USA)

About the composition Circle Limit III: [it] gracefully flowed outward in a warm ambient wash. The piece was never static...with the sound rising, falling and slowly shimmering in the bright afternoon sunshine. The harmonies were lush and comforting.
