sounds like you know more than I do. They sound too snazzy to have been
recorded in 1965, so you're probably right. I imagine they were
"composed" in 1965 at least. At any rate, I recommend them, along with
"Four Violins" and "Slapping Pythagoras".

Minimally yours,

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the pieces on "Early Minimalism" are
named after months in 1965 but were actually recorded in 1994.
