Born to Roma | Amala School - 0 views

  •  
    The Roma's signifiers are still source of both reverence and derision in the West. While their cultural product, from the great Django Reinhardt to the pop chart-ready sound of the Gipsy Kings, has been happily consumed, as a people they have been held at arm's length by a Europe still fixating typecasts of the thief and the mystic. Today, the Roma remain one of the most persecuted communities in Europe.

John Cage and 4'33" ...::: Was He Trying to Piss Off the Audience...?...Or...? - 0 views

  •  
    The purpose of this essay is to examine the aesthetic behind Cage's "silent" composition, 4'33", to trace its history, and to show that it marked a significant change in John Cage's musical thought -- specifically how it forms a point-of-no-return from the conventional communicative, self-expressive and intentional purpose of music to a radical new aesthetic that informs the field of unintentional sound, interpenetration, chance, and indeterminacy. The compositional process is described, both the writing of 4'33" and its evolution from past thought. Implications for performance are examined.

Don Cherry: 1936-1995 | Biography | Howard Mandel, Jazz Journalist - 0 views

  •  
    Don Cherry was one of the most individual and idiosyncratic voices in contemporary jazz and world music, and also one of the most significant figures of his era. In an age of technically fearsome trumpet players, Cherry preferred to emphasise expression and musical communication over speed and technical prowess, and evolved an utterly distinctive sound and style in the process.

G.I. Gurdjieff | Music for Movements | Gurdjieff / de Hartmann Music for the Piano - 0 views

  •  
    In 1929, when Thomas de Hartmann and his wife took leave of G. I. Gurdjieff at Gurdjieff's Institute near Paris, they left behind a steamer trunk filled with manuscript music, much of which is recorded here for the first time. The music was composed by Gurdjieff and de Hartmann in a collaboration witnessed daily by the community of Gurdjieff's pupils and documented both in de Hartmann's book Our Life with Mr Gurdjieff and in the well-preserved sequence of manuscript drafts. One thing is clear: an exceptional musical event occurred at the Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man in the years 1925-27, and its enduring result is this body of music.
