No image available Macedonian Air Drumming

    Neil Rolnick gets around. He was in Yugoslavia for the sounds in 'Macedonian Air Drumming' (1990), which he performs with Air Drums. And 'ReRebong' (1989) uses Indonesian gamelan sounds. 'Sanctus' (1990), a score for Barbara Hammer's film, is electronically-processed fragments from masses by Machaut, Byrd, Bach, et al. 'Balkanization' (1988) uses Balkan folk songs.

No image available Ride

    Paul Lansky uses a computer to make musical magic. He turns conversational speech into vibrant rhythms. He enhances the sensation of riding in a car through various landscapes, towns, and villages. He looks back through a fog of time to his high school's official song. He creates a wild, virtuoso and energetic work for an imaginary improvising computer-simulated pianist. And like a musical chain letter, he builds upon a recording of a previous Lansky work for electric guitar (performed by Steve Mackey).

    The compositions are 'Idle Chatter Junior' (1999), 'Ride' (2000), 'Looking Back' (1996), 'Heavy Set' (1998), and 'Dancertracks: Remix' (1997). This is one of Lansky's best CDs!

No image available My Cinema For The Ears

    Composers Francis Dhomont and Paul Lansky are the joint focus of this very informative film by Uli Aumuller, available here on DVD. Interviews with both composers in various locales are supported by samples of their work. Scenes of natural landscapes are used to illustrate parallels between rhythms, narrative, sound, textual allusion, and imagery in music and nature. We observe and listen to Dhomont in his process of doing field recordings and studio assemblage for 'Un Autre Printemps'. Animated images created by video artist Robert Darrol accompany Dhomont's composition 'En Cuerdas'. Lansky describes his process of work and the concepts behind 'Night Traffic', 'Table's Clear', and 'Idle Chatter Junior'. The languages spoken are French and English with subtitles in French, German and English as appropriate.

No image available Just West Coast

    Music by LaMonte Young, Lou Harrison, John Cage, and Harry Partch, played just beautifully by John Schneider, guitarist (and occasional singer), and Amy Schulman, harpist. And attention! Schneider's reconstruction of the original (1941) version of Partch's 'Barstow' is of historical interest: Partch re-orchestrated 'Barstow' a number of times over the years and the original guitar and voice version was thought lost. Thanks to Schneider, it's found and to be heard.
