The books, films and records that no longer exist.
Mozart’s Requiem K. 626 is an uncompleted liturgical setting composed in his final year. It divides the Dies irae into multiple movements and belongs to a tradition that evolved from sacred service to concert hall. It is among his best-known works from that period, but remains structurally and textually incomplete.
A Rainbow in Curved Air is a solo studio construction: keyboard and percussion overdubs on the A-side, saxophone drone and tape manipulation on the B-side. Made in 1968 on one of CBS’s first eight-track recorders. It established repetition, delay, and modal layering as core tools for electronic composition — not as texture, but as architecture.
A studio recording of Verdi’s Aida, made in 1989. Contains all vocal and orchestral numbers across four acts. Omits Verdi’s rejected overture. No source material describes performers, conductor, recording venue, or engineering choices.
A low, dark opera built by deleting violins — and a Western fantasy dressed as ancient ritual.
A technically assured, narratively precise soundtrack built for mass appeal and cinematic utility. It delivers exactly what it promises: songs that advance plot, underscore emotion, and vanish from memory once the credits roll.
