Produced by Brian Eno in 1978, “The Pavilion Of Dreams” stands toe-to-toe with another minimalist masterpiece also released that year, Steve Reich’s “Music For 18 Musicians“. Harold Budd‘s gorgeous pieces reveal a lightness of touch that draws the listener in, while sublime voices float in and out as if in a recurring dream. Featuring saxophonist Marion Brown and multi-instrumentalists Gavin Bryars and Michael Nyman, “The Pavilion Of Dreams“remains a master class in exquisite timbre and shimmering texture.
