The Swiss flutist Aurele Nicolet has been active in the field of contemporary and post-modern music for a long time since the 50's. In 1974, she recorded Toru Takemitsu's "Miniatur II" with Ursula Holliger and Heinz Holliger and released it on Deutsche Grammophon. This album was released in 1969 from Wergo label in Germany. This album features works by composers such as Pierre Boulez, Yoritsune Matsudaira, Kazuo Fukui, Jurg Wyttenbach, and Luciano Berio, with Jurg Wyttenbach playing piano on A1 and B1. The whole album is a wonderful performance, but the most noteworthy is B1, where flute and piano intertwine like a spiral in the front-middle section, and then an amplified electronic sound appears. Later pressings with different artwork.
