Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Olle Aberg's The wonderful adventures of Dr Olyd and her time-shaping machine. This is a work for electronics that tells the story of a scientist working on a machine that will alter space-time. The composer feels the title suggests a feeling of childhood adventures where anything could happen, which is reflected in the story. The piece has several layers and connotations, and the music amplifies the whole feeling.
