Lawrence D. “Butch” Morris
In 1995 New World Records released a limited-edition, 10 CD collections of Butch Morris' Conductions. The box set is no longer available, but all ten albums can be purchased individually.
"Conducting is no longer a mere method for an interpretation, but an actual part of the process of composition. Conduction is a means by which a conductor may compose, (re)orchestrate, (re)arrange and sculpt both notated and non-notated music. Using a vocabulary of signs and gestures, many within the general glossary of traditional conducting, the conductor may alter or initiate rhythm, melody, and harmony; develop form and structure; and instantaneously change articulation, phrasing, and meter.”
