Grand Canyon Suite = 大峡谷 – Tomita & The Plasma Symphony Orchestra – LP – Pre Owned Vinyl (Arrives in 14days)

Isao Tomita’s name is synonymous with boundary-pushing electronic interpretations of classical masterpieces, and ‘Grand Canyon Suite = 大峡谷’ is among his most ambitious undertakings. Teaming up with The Plasma Symphony Orchestra, Tomita transforms Ferde Grofé’s iconic American orchestral suite into a breathtaking soundscape that fuses the grandeur of Western Classical with the limitless possibilities of synthesizers. The familiar contours of Grofé’s original are respected, but Tomita’s signature approach — layering analog synths, inventive textures, and spatial effects — brings the sweeping panoramas and dramatic turns of the Grand Canyon vividly to life. Each movement feels cinematic, transporting the listener from sunrise to storm with an immediacy that’s impossible to achieve in purely acoustic settings. For collectors, this album is a testament to an era when electronic music dared to converse with tradition, yielding results that are both reverent and radically new. Whether you are a devotee of electronic music, a lover of orchestral works, or simply drawn to albums that defy easy categorization, Tomita’s ‘Grand Canyon Suite’ stands as an essential and thrilling entry in the canon of instrumental innovation.
