This captivating album, released on August 3, 2018, under Composers Concordance Records, is a testament to Pritsker's versatility and innovative spirit. Spanning a little over an hour, the album is a kaleidoscope of genres and styles, seamlessly blending classical, jazz, and contemporary influences.
The album opens with the four-movement Suite No. 1, performed live, showcasing Pritsker's mastery of composition and arrangement. From the intricate fugues to the ethereal "Air Everywhere," each piece is a journey in itself.

Pritsker's "Haiku Shout Song Cycle" is a standout, with live performances of "Shiki's Pain" and "Issa's Cries, Piss and Shit" delivering raw, emotive power. The "Migration Song" and "Quotes from People Born on July 18th" add a touch of narrative depth, while the "Heavy Metal in the 80's" series pays homage to iconic bands like Sabbath and Priest, reimagined in Pritsker's unique style.
The album concludes with "Elegant Piles of Refuse" and "Gas Choral II," leaving the audience with a sense of awe and anticipation for what Pritsker will create next. "Eclectic Music Extravaganza" is not just an album; it's an experience, a celebration of Pritsker's boundless creativity and his ability to transcend musical boundaries.
