and the echoes left behind by the American composer's prepared train have spread through time. This rare document contains
critical contributions on the event in both Italian and English, 3 audio CDs featuring the elaboration of the train’s
3 excursions and 1 DVD. They are all previously unpublished materials, collected here for the first time."
