Self-taught composer Larry Chernicoff began writing music in the mid 1970’s for a dance troupe in Woodstock New York, where he worked and taught at the legendary Creative Music Studio. On his 1983 debut album, Gallery of Air, he began blending improvisation with long-form compositions, minimalism, orchestral instruments, multi-layered counterpoint, the warm textures of synthesizers, and a diverse range of international sounds.
Originally released in 1984, the warm analog sound of Gallery of Air is preserved in the 2018 re-master, available on vinyl and digital download as a collaboration between Incidental Music and Chernicoff’s own Windy Planet Music.
