Chapel Performance Space, Good Shepherd Center, Seattle
what have we here
a book
what we have here
these paper wounds
we start proper
worthily, Neal is gaining an audience for this crazy project
it is quite the thing to experience
acted but acting not
spoken but sung
a musical reciter at top of game
Recorded

Banned Rehearsal 276 - John E, Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Aaron Keyt [November 1991]
Listening is thinking
thinking listening
language hegemonizes mind
so too does music
language and music engage in mutual hegemonization
language seeks to control
because it, language, is control
music seeks to permeate
so peaceful a lullaby
drumming to serve for work song
dulcimer bridges a gap between koto and banjo
(but then the autoharp?)
lyre and lute pipe and drum
a gentle concerto for mountain dulcimer and autoharp untuned
John the impaler of snails
John the emboweler of otters
minor masterworks of the limerick art, by Aaron
recorded in The Spaceship Tintinabulary on its generation long journey to The Center of the Unknown Universe
a bell is a cymbal with pious pretensions
toy piano toy accordion toy drum
trio contrapuntesque
My Northwest Home - Wes Weddell [from My Northwest Home]
more string play

24 Preludes 1-4 - Ken Benshoof - Keith Eisenbrey [June 2006]
My performance here focuses on the piano thinking rather than on the genre thinking, in order to make plain what is optional in the notation.
Spokane - Rachel Harrington [from Celilo Falls]
She does not rhyme "gold watch and chain" with "Spokane" (because it doesn't!)
She rhymes it with rain.
I fall in love with the fancy duo guitar stuff. Her personal geography takes care with its syllables.
Riverview Park Playfields - Keith Eisenbrey [May 2016]
We were camped then in West Seattle while our bathroom was being redone. We took a walk through a nearby park and birdsong. We cross a street at a crosswalk.
foot step rhythm like bubbling sauce
kneading crunch dough
softball in the distant wilds
more distant traffic flanges through space as space is heard

Canzon - Thomas Simpson - The King's Noyse, David Douglass [from Mascharada - Music at the Bückeburg Court of Ernst III]
a miniature opera
done in 4 minutes or so
In Session at the Tintinabulary

Banned Rehearsal 972 - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Aaron Keyt, Neal Kosály-Meyer
