This music was conceived for a 1998 installation of Brian Eno, collaborting with Jiri Prihoda in Prague. The CD was donated to an auction in aid of South London Arts in January 2001 and raised £ 400.
As Thursday Afternoon, Music for Prague is a long ambient track, where piano notes and melodic lines evolve very slowly. It is another perfect realization of Eno's concept of generative music, where different tracks are blended together in a randomly way, and one should listen to the installation at least 10.000 years to hear the entire possibilities of a single piece.
Quiet music for our hectic times, Music for Prague is the perfect soundtrack for a winter evening... To be played and listened to in infinite repeat mode !

dynamite post.. didn't know the whole generative music bit, just like the sonorous sonics of his palette.. many thanks, ab
Merci beaucoup - je n'ai pas eu consicence de cet morceau. This and the piece for the Russian Museam are lesser-known wonders of Eno.
Thank You, Thank You & Thank You!
A great recording.
As promised, I can point you to a complete album of my own ambient music. I will be posting out-of-print recordings from my musical career on my new blog. I have you linked, feel free to link to me...
Thanks again,

Thanks again, hadn't heard this one before!
Thank for posting an unknown (to me) Eno album. Not as comforting as Thursday Afternoon but interesting nonetheless.
you have a very fine blog with an assortment of really special music - thank you for your work. And for the pressentation of Eno, too.
may you have a sunny day. Polychromos
Thanks for the rare Eno.
