The sonic qualities of ice turned out to be so fantastic that Terje decided to start working on a CD recording with ice instruments. He wanted to expand beyond ice percussion, and had ideas for ice "brass" and string instruments. Recording conditions would have to be extreme, because the fragile ice instruments are very quiet and also prone to temperature damage. The perfect location was found at the Ice Hotel in Jukkasjarvi , North Sweden , and music for the CD "Iceman Is" was recorded the first two days of February 2001.

aw man, RRRecords used to have all of those Harry Bertoia albums for like $5 each. Wish I hadn't been a poor college student in the 80's...

Unfolding is still in print, easily found online. ReRusa has it, so does forcedexposure.

Anyone know anything about I.A. Mackenzie? I've seen his name mentioned re. 'wind' instruments but not been able to Google very much on him. He's Canadian I think.

He also did one piece where the instruments were played by fire. Cool.

don't know if it counts as an instrument, but eric lanzilotta released that 10" of recordings from inside a water tower. called water tower.

also, the alvin lucier on a budget sounds of richard harrison's drone hill 225.
