I have made several films with live jazz soundtracks performed and composed by Lisa Mezzacappa: Found and Lost Glorious Ravage and my Naval Compression uses an excerpt from a composition by Duke Ellington.

Joyce Wieland's Rat Life and Diet in North America has a violent cacophony of free jazz at the beginning that I've not been able to identify. Joyce's Water Sark has an improvisational soundtrack by Carla Bley & Mike Mantler (of the Jazz Composers Orchestra) with Ray Jessel (Broadway composer and later novelty songwriter). Likewise, her Peggy's Blue Skylight is named for the Mingus composition and features Paul Bley playing it on the soundtrack. There are passages of jazz in the collage soundtracks of Arthur Lipsett. (Sorry for the Canada-centric response!) I feel like there's a Kuchar movie that has the Scott Lafaro bass solo from Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz on the soundtrack... There's another Hy Hirsch film, Gyromorphosis, that uses Django by the MJQ/John Lewis. There's always Pull My Daisy.

I?m doing my PhD dissertation on one of Stan Brakhage?s films and I have a limited time frame in which I can do the trip to New York and examine the print in a flat table. Following the terms published in their site I requested an appointment six weeks ago - 12 labor days later I had no answer and I phoned the person in charge. He was very polite and explained to me that, yes, he got my e-mail but still had to go through? other requests before mine. I emphasized why I was requesting their service and told him I would wait for his reply. Yet: my time frame is closing and I still have no reply. My question: is it usual for them to take this long?? When should I consider that my request was dismissed or forgotten before I insist? For correctness sake I?d appreciate if you could answer to this message privately. Thanks in advance.

There should be plenty of avant-garde and experimental films where the soundtrack is instrumental jazz music. Maybe the field of Visual Music should be the most represented but i'm sure there are other films like the one by Michael Snow that uses, in this case, free jazz music or improvisation. Does anyone remember some other avant-garde films with jazz soundtracks? Right my list is as follows: Begone Dull Care (1949) by Norman McLaren. Music by Oscar Peterson Films No. 1 (1948) by Harry Smith. Music by Dizzy Gillespie Chasse des Touches (1959) by Hy Hirsh. Music by Thelonious Monk Catalog (1961) by John Whitney. Music by Ornette Coleman New York Eye and Ear Control (1964) by Michael Snow. Music by Albert Ayler, Don Cherry, etc. Thanks in advance, Albert Alcoz -- http://visionaryfilm.net/ <http://www.visionaryfilm.net/> http://albertalcoz.com/ <http://www.albertalcoz.com/> _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com <mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks <https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks> <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <x-msg://16/#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com <mailto:FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com> https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks <https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If we were wondering how compromise looks . . ahem, and who could not be wondering that today? . . this film, which is screening at Facets until Nov. 11, would be my vote for "production values" entry into the "experimental" film discussion. *The Wall Street Journal* today shows Trump on its cover page urging the North Koreans to "come to the table and make a deal." Film artists . . come to the table. This director of *Liberation Day*, listed as a "North Korean expert on Facets page devoted to the film, shows you how it's done. Just try taking Laibach to perform in North Korea. We used to watch to see the compromises. But compromise would not be why the cinema was empty when I attended its first night. I had a conversation with the projectionist (during his stint at the desk before start-time): This part of Facets is non-profit, and that explained to me how the thing could even get to Facets. (I had been wondering how many people would be familiar enough with Laibach and its significance for art to take interest). It's not as if we need a behind-the-scenes like this. What has become interesting is the look of compromise . . in anything and everything on the screen. Bernie -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
