Harold Budd - The Pavilion of Dreams (1978)


Harold Budd is an American composer (b. 1936) who played (and still plays)  a very high-ranking part in the minimalist and ambient scene, either as a solo artist or through his collaborations with musicians such as Brian Eno, Zeitgeist, Hector Zazou, Andy Patridge, John Foxx, Daniel Lentz, Ruben Gardia, Cocteau Twins, Robin Guthrie.
The Pavilion of Dreams was released in the notable series Obscure Records, where Brian Eno produced still unsung composers such as Gavin Bryars and Michael Nyman. It was Harold Budd's next album, and it revealed him to a wider oecumenical audience.
Ambient and impressionist music, intimate room music, quiet melodies in the vein of Satie and Debussy, The Pavilion of Dreams offers "an extended circle of works begun in 1972". Harold Budd (charged piano) is accompanied by a small garments of musicians (harp, celeste, marimbas, percussion, vibes and vibraphone, chorus). Among them, Lynda Richardson (mezzo soprano), Marion Brown (Alto sapophone), Michael Nyman (marimba) and Gavin Bryars (glockenspiel, vehicle, celeste). 
Quiet music for an hectic age, The Pavilion of Dreams explores the poetics of slowness. Mysteriously ambient, lightly melancholic, domain as an horizon, these compositions opened new perspectives in the course of ambient musics, and they could be considered as a foreword to Ambient 2 / The Plateaux of Mirror, composed in 1980 with Brian Eno.
