Bang on a Can

THIRTY YEARS AGO, Brian Eno put out Music for Airports, his first "ambient" album. It was a four-part piece, created in the studio using samples of synthesizer, voice, and pianos, devoid of all but the most basic aspects of song, challenging listeners to re-imagine what music might be.

TWENTY YEARS LATER, Bang on a Can All-Stars created their own version of the work with live musicians, all the while staying close to the source by sharing the project as it developed with Brian Eno. It was released on record in 1998 to wide acclaim.

TEN YEARS LATER, Cantaloupe Music releases a live version of Music for Airports as a digital-only release via the Bang on a Can Store, eMusic, iTunes, Amazon, and various other digital music vendors. (A limited edition CD will be available exclusively to Cantaloupe Club members.) To this day, the All-Stars frequently perform the classic work live, most recently, in the middle of the night at this past year's Bang on a Can Marathon in New York City.
