Without a doubt this is the most splendid recording of 4'33" available to date. The Amadinda Percussion Group brings a sensitivity & brio to the piece that have rarely been approached. The tempo is a bit faster than usual but this is a welcome change that resonates closer to Cage's intention. The sound quality is first-rate: every nuance is finely chiselled to perfection while the dynamics are tracked with absolute fidelity.
