The first two parts of « Acustica » are live performances by five musicians (recorded at Studio Rhenus, Godorf bei Köln, on January 28-31, 1971)
and the second two parts are electroacoustic compositions produced in 1969. The live performances use a crazy collection of homemade instruments, some purely acoustic and others incorporating loud-speakers, tone generators, or cassette recorders.
