Hi, The music by Marc Ribot for "Inasmuch as Life is borrowed..." was released on CD in 2001 on the own recordlabel of Wim Vandekeybus and his dance group Ultima Vez. I bought the CD some time ago at one of the Ultima Vez shows (Supposedly the only place where they are sold...) Maybe the CD is also for sale through their website: www.ultimavez.com Details: Title: music from the performance "Inasmuch as Life is borrowed..." Label: Ultima Vez (UV 01) 2001 Tracks: 1. Terramotati 2. After 3. Piotr's Blues 4. Nothing 5. Max 6. Air (Requiem) 7. Blood 8. The End Marc Ribot: electric and acoustic guitars Anthony Coleman: piano, keyboards, samplers, pump organ Ned Rothenberg: clarinet, bass clarinet Sim Cain: drums, percussion Sebastian Steinberg: electric and double bass Gavin Webber: voice and text improvisation (track 4) produced by JD Foster recorded live: Théatre de la Ville, Paris, November 24 & 25, 2000 And it is really good, of course... Best, Maarten Hepp

I caught some of these compositions at the Tonic w/Coleman, Rothenberg, Steinberg and Cain. Pretty fuckin phenomenal. A lot of it was sorta Shrek-like. At times I was very much reminded of certain noisy train-rides I've had.

Listening to music after Adorno by Tobias Plebuch (a bit Zorn content)
by Fritz Feger 24 Oct '02

24 Oct '02

I just found Zorn mentioned in an interesting article in the German intellectual review MERKUR, August 2002 issue, by Tobias Plebuch, named "Musikhören nach Adorno" (in German). The article provides an extensive comment on musical history, post-modernism, a critique on Adorno from someone who obviously was educated as a believer but now conversed (these are always the worst critics). He is in particual concerning the role of New Music (i.e. serialism and the consequences) today, its original political ambitions and armageddon views, its problems with the listener in general, elitarism, and quality criteria. There's also some Varèse, Cage, Kronos quartet. Interesting (though not new to me since this is already into Musil's aesthetics) is his account of listening as creative act. Who listens has to transform psycho-acoustic pheonomens into a musical imagination, and the latter is exactly what a composer does. The only thing the composer has to do in addition is to somehow get his imaginations out of his mind again, be it in writing it down or in playing it (if he is a jazz musician).

Under the wing
by Arthur Gadney 24 Oct '02

24 Oct '02

Hi, I was thinking about getting the new Filmworks disc "Under The Wing", but was a bit curious how it compares to the other CDs by the string trio. Is there any notable difference? How much to the extra voice and piano guests change the sounds and are Zorn's compositions still up to snuff? Cheers! _________________________________________________________________ Unlimited Internet access -- and 2 months free! Try MSN. http://resourcecenter.msn.com/access/plans/2monthsfree.asp
