But even this similarity is very much an abstract one: In the event, though, this was a well-presented evening of strange music which didn't deliver on its promises.

Another, deeper aspect comes to bear on this album, because his subjective choice of pieces sees Francesco Tristano organically blend Bach and Cage, blurring borders while emphasising shared elements. This music was beat-driven and conspicuously influenced by techno and trance music, while only inconspicuously influenced by the recital's two subjects.
