Banned Rehearsal 100 Side B - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Neal Kosály-Meyer [June 1986]
how long can it begin to be
beginning
edging backward
into the earliest beginning
to possibly begin
in order
a low spinet tone joins up
keyboard talk
how very Inter/Play of them (us)
east coast Crumar and Baldwin grand
west coast Wurlitzer (?) and Baldwin Acrosonic
plays a chord
then another and again
but have we begun
or begin we still
cymbal announcement from just at the limn of beginning
drum roll please It Has Begun! (soon)
we Aaronsbundler step steady march step
Fantastic Variations on it
3 characters each interpreting the goings on to their own purpose
toys with ending
so coy
My Country arises in glory
'tis of thee a patriotic moment
Flag Day after all
after our fashion
we playfully play
now waddle it be?
wad dull it be?
Electric Garbage not yet
we should all leave singing for the time being
and now a Hymn
we carry on despite frequent incursions from Knitters
everything what ever was has been a riff upon the old march we do
and several
we tune as though about to
drift off
Red Dress - Jad Fair [from Kill Rock Stars]
'tudinal meta-sophomoric
color me the ages of seduction
Spirit Wind - Dean Evensen [from Native Healing]
rhythm guitar with help
very like a psychic reading
spread your guesses wildly
reel them in one hit at a time
Liebeslied Amended - Keith Eisenbrey, after Benjamin Boretz [recorded March 30, 2007]
my touchstone
amulet
an am
on om
anamonom
I play to see where I
am that I am
which fingerprint of mine is most firmly etched here?
my additions or my ear editions
auditioned
:: a note about the big repeat of the whole at the end: it prompts the repeat iteration to sound as though it says let me try that again ::
-Ben: I've been thinking about this piece, and our relationship, recently, as expressed in this piece, in the gift of the pencil score to me from you, your gift of offer to allow recomposition
as in
start here
it is yours
Thank you
Interlude - Claire Sykes [from Hendrix Uncovered]
delicate // unreconstructable
Banned Rehearsal 913 - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Steve Kennedy, Aaron Keyt [July 2016]
on the porch fire cracker works
a march grimly determinated
we discover and work through new slants using all available old slants
Mahlerian the bird I need a word or two with you
come down here says the bird one need do so little
the night is magic about now

Keyboard Sonata in A minor, K. 3 - Domenica Scarlatti - Pieter-Jan Belder
excessively intricate balloon animals twisted out of duration and incipience
O Thank Thee Not - Lake Washington Singers, Betty Eisenbrey, director [April 1966]
choral strophes stress feet and lines
Trinkle Tinkle (Take 1) - Thelonious Monk [from The London Collection]
within the imprecision of this approximation
an impression of focused intent
bluesing a note by flutzing the lead ins
Track 9 - Empire Brass Quartet [from American Brass Band Journal Revisited]
lives in a vague mudness of repetition and unassuming newness
within strict bounds
two-part instrumental bridge to chorus repeat to fade
final verse the backing vocal moves closer up
ding!
Grand Circus Fantasia - Canadian Brass [from Red, White & Brass]
clowns of brass
they play glorified kazoos after all
the theater show of skill and juggle

Track 5 - Seattle Chamber Music Festival [July 2001]
Brahms, I believe
Track 4 - Bob Dylan [from Key Arena October 13, 2006]
unafraid to allow his expressive imagining to overstep his available technical range
he knows he won't hit it and won't be heard but goes for it anyway
taking care of business
always musical
the spirit speaks through the body
The Sow Took The Measles C - Train Case
I think I was working on the balance between the vocal parts
Let Today - No Rey [from Contradictions]
We heard this band at The Josephine back in the 2013
big baritone voice
acoustic guitar rhythm
narrow pitch affect
8 syllable lines
phrases move one to another
from well enough but seem constrained
within their meter, their phrase, their
careful tune
In Session at the Tintinabulary
Gradus 347 - Neal Kosály-Meyer
what is in your flask of notes? subflasks?
determined
inflicted with endness
indeterminate as to || fallen apart soon to be assembled || or include pull in in clude ink l'ud enclued
clued in (k)
