There is little doubt in my mind that Gérard Grisey is the most important French composer since Messiaen. He is, along with Tristan Murail, responsible for the 'Spectralist' movement in music, and is one of the greatest creative geniuses of the 20th century. Included on this 2008 Kairos release is a seldom performed 20-minute work for chamber orchestra, four percussionists, and two synthesizers, and a stunning work for twelve voices and tape.

It is good news that this unique work is now available on CD. It is, in many ways, of its time; the late '70s. It should appeal both to World Music devotees and to people who have enjoyed such music as Stockhausen's 1968 STIMMUNG (TUNING) for 6 vocalists and sound projection. The notes are very comprehensive; Luis de Pablo characterises his Poem of Wood as "a long meditation with no sense of direction"; the conductor describes it as one of de Pablo's masterpieces, "a calm, reflective journey through the Basque landscape". This 1992 studio recording made in Madrid is a great success.
