This is not a particularly good imitation of Grauer’s style, but it conveys the rhythms and the atmosphere of his ‘Book of the Year 3000’ better than a prosaic description would. It does not, however, convey the reality of sitting still and listening to Grauer’s meditative poetry music for over three hours. It is not the kind of program that should be recommended to everyone. But for the patient listener who does not require a message or a dramatic line, the rewards can be great.
