[Zappa-List] Re: King Kong

2005-07-28 Thread lars_arnwald
Hello,
You're right in your assumption of Bunk playing "electric-depending" 
woodwinds. We're talking about the Maestro Woodwind System. It's 
basically an octave divider that produces sounds one and two octaves 
below the input pitch. Through a filter these sounds could be altered 
to sound like an English horn, bass clarinet, bass saxophone, 
bassoon. If I remember correctly the incoming sound could also be 
filtered to sound like a fluegelhorn without using octave division. 
On top of these one could add fuzz and vibrato effects. I haven't 
listened to "King Kong" for a long time (+35 yrs.) but I think Bunk 
solos on a soprano sax and uses a fuzzed bassoon sound two octaves 
below (the range of the bass saxophone). I think Bunk originally was 
a bassoon player, when I talked to him at the Zappanale 2002 he told 
me he had won a grant to study it with one of the smaller orchestras 
attached to the Cleveland Symphony back in his high school days. 
There are also other parts of Uncle Meat where he plays the "real" 
bassoon. Finally, Ian Underwood also used the the Maestro system, 
sometimes with a wha-wha pedal.

That sounds about right.  I just listened to it again, it could very 
well be just a plain saxophone, but electrified and jazzed up.

Just found this link too (you've probably all seen this already) 
that adds a bit to my listening experience of King Kong :)

The credits mention that Bunk plays "electric-depending" woodwinds at 
times - this is one of those, I think, since it produces tones in two 
or three different octaves at once.  He also plays this for a few 
seconds on "Uncle Meat: Main Title Theme", btw.

Hey Chris!

Yep, Uncle Meat it is.  I was just reading something about it 
actually, since posting earlier today, and am quite excited about 
it.  (Keep in mind that last night was my first exposure to King 
Kong ever)  

It says "It consists of a brief set of composed sequences which are 
then followed by extensive improvising.  This beautiful set of 
descending sequences is in 3/4 time and in Dorian mode."  Now I want 
to hear it again!!

But what IS that sound?  It's so funky...

Thanks for the compliments on my site!  I had forgotten all about 
it...  It's been a while since I've made any updates to it...

Kelly
