Avalon Sutra / As Long As I Can Hold My Breath is a double album by Harold Budd which, at the time of its release in 2005, was reported to be his final musical work.[2] However, both Music for 'Fragments from the Inside'[3] and Mysterious Skin - Music from the Film, a collaboration with Robin Guthrie,[4] were released a few months after this album. The first disc is titled Avalon Sutra, and the second, a remix from Akira Rabelais, is titled As Long as I Can Hold My Breath.
