Oxford Minimalist Ensemble Sheldonian concert conducted by Alexander Campkin (2006)
The Oxford Minimalist Ensemble (OME) is a chamber ensemble based in Oxford and founded by Alexander Campkin to represent the influential wave of Minimalist music that began in the US in the 1960s.

This extremely influential style of composition has until recently been largely neglected on the stages of Oxford music. This CD is the recording from our concert in the Shelonian Theatre, Oxford, in May 2006.
This classical cd contains 2 tracks and runs 55min 4sec.
