It was particularly popular and highly acclaimed among the 24 titles in the original “Avant-Garde” series released by Deutsche Grammophon between 1968 and 1971. After completing his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London, Cardew moved to Cologne in 1958, where he served as an assistant to Karlheinz Stockhausen at the electronic music studio of West German Radio (WDR). British pianist John Tilbury has stated that what Cardew sought to achieve with the Scratch Orchestra and *The Great Learning* was “to break away from the most fundamental principles of Western art, particularly the notion that artists are a privileged class,” and and that “the Scratch Orchestra expresses the universality of art—that is, art as a way of life.” Recorded in 1971, the release of *The Great Learning* remains the primary means of encountering the Scratch Orchestra’s sonic world and is the most significant contribution to the legacy that should be preserved for future generations.\nUniversal Music\/IMS\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53255626096929,"sku":"28948682157","price":1053000.0,"currency_code":"IDR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/28948682157.jpg?v=1786765420","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-id\/products\/28948682157","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
