The abstract presentation of this music is not listenable, but I was unable to cast my vote as that. There is no discernible message or theme, except possibly during the last seven minutes of it.
The real difficulty is that with so much music in the queue which really should be heard as one segment of at least twenty minutes ~ many are just sixty seconds or two and a half minutes. Composers don't write their music for these divisions, but Rzewski could use several, in my view.

The very first piece, " A Certain Era" is a perfect duet between the orchestra and the violin solo. This collaboration with Joseph Livingstone & the violinist is magical, and calls for more work together as they explore the vastness of our classical universe.
I may have more comments as I listen to each track, getting familiar with Livingstone's style and creativity.

A delightful, skillfully executed tour de force which seemingly plays their music the spontaneity which may well have been how it was originally heard. Each one is a gem!
