- This appears to be a studio recording of an incomplete, early draft of Gavin Bryars' music for Medea, possibly made in New York City. It is unclear whether the performers featured here were the same performers as in the Washington open rehearsal of 1981, those from the New York open rehearsal of 1982, or an entirely different group of performers.
