Oratorio: What Remains https://youtu.be/NSqkHTH_r9g VIDEO http://www.alansondheim.org/setup1.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/setup3.jpg Azure Carter, song, voice, photography Edward Schneider, saxophone, Zoom video Alan Sondheim, viola braguesa, chromatic harmonica, echo harmonica, violaline, classical guitar, rababa Day's remnants, war's remnants, remnants of disease, song's remnants, music's remnants Recorded in one take, this version from a single H4n or H2n. We recorded around 8 tracks, but this already had the right balance. Single take improvisation. Oh, and I'm mouth-breathing, not scowling. Azure's song "What Remains" drawn out, dirge, chant, memory of war which is not memory. The imminent is always imminent, the immanent is always immanent. This may well be our best improvisation to date, and I didn't feel there was any bad or awkward playing on my part. The couch appears to be sinking into the ground. It was dark outside, quiet for once. What else but that the war may end before the onslaught slaughterhouse in the east. Between Minneapolis and Providence there is a country. - Alan Sondheim _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] https://lists.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
