Program Notes: 

Electric tuba, electric guitar and narrator are the primary voices in Lang’s Are You Experienced, a psychedelic and absurd musical reaction to Jimi Hendrix’s famed counterculture anthem by the same name.

Apotheosis of This Earth, which was inspired by the reckless speed with which man contaminates the earth, is what Husa calls his “manifesto” against pollution and destruction.
