Electronic Sonata for Souls Loved by Nature

Electronic Sonata for Souls Loved by Nature is a composed work, originally in fourteen movements—or events as they are denoted by the composer—written by jazz arranger George Russell in the 1960 decade, using new compositional techniques associated at the time with contemporary music. It was performed April 29, 1969 during a concert at the Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, a recording of which was released in 1971. The composition is "... meant to suggest that man, in the face of encroaching technology, must confront technology and attempt to humanize it, using it to enrich his collective soul…not only his purse… to explore inner, as well as outer space".
