Artist: JOHN CAGE//SUSANNA BORSCH/CHRISTINA FONG/KAREN KRUMMEL/GLENN FREEMAN/MICHAEL CRAWFORD/PRAGUE WINDS Title: Three, Twenty-Eight, Twenty-Six With Twenty-Eight, Twenty-eight With Twenty-Nine [DVD Audio] Label: OgreOgress Country: USA Format: DVD Status: AVAILABLE $24.00
Description: Featuring performances of John Cage's "Three" (1989), "Twenty-Eight" (1991), "Twenty-Six with Twenty-Eight" 91991) and "Twenty-Eight with Twenty-Nine". The musicians include Susanna Borsch on recorders, the Prague Winds, Christina Fong on violins & violas, Karen Krummel on cellos, Michael Crawford on basses and Glenn Freeman on percussion, bowed piano & production. Over 2 hours in length and superbly recorded. "Three" is for solo recorder with layers of other recorders added, giving this an almost electronic drone sound. The recorder was the favored instrument of Renaissance era, but here the sound is more mysterious, the stark layers adding a more twisted ambiance. Each of the ten parts of "Three" deals with a different texture of approach. "Twenty-Eight" is performed by Prague Winds, an eight-piece wind ensemble. The winds include flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, French horns, trumpets, trombones and tubas. The extreme dynamic range of these instruments is quite rich and stunning to hear. Once again the layers of drones are fascinating and seem to be shifting throughout the long work. Christina Fong is featured on strings with the Prague Winds on "26 with 28" and the sound is even more disturbing, like a giant Church organ wheezing and trying to cover us up in eerie audio sludge. On "28 with 29," the sound expands even further with the Prague Winds, Freeman on bowed piano & percussion, the three string players. The thick layers of drone waves is more ominous than ever as it covers us with a sense of foreboding. The bowed piano and sizzling percussion add a layer of unnerving drama that is too hard to deny. Overall, this is a most impressive display of varying textures and cosmic drones. - BLG (over 2 hours of music)
