Joseph Benzola has a piece titled thusly:
Partch & Taylor Jamming After Absinthe
and described thusly:
What would happen if Harry Partch and Cecil Taylor got together and
jammed after they drank a bottle of absinthe...could this be the answer??
For a microtuned midi percussion ensemble and piano solo.

IMHO not quite, but an interesting listen.

I found it boring. Absinthe must be the critical ingredient.
