Preface
 |
| karen's deconstructed apple cranberry pie |
Is doubled, tripled, as he sees around him
Strange figures in the sky and savage beasts,
The Scorpion, for instance, arms outreaching
In two half-circles, and the other members
Spread over infinite acres, and black poison
Stinking and rank, and the threatening curved stinger.
Out of his senses, with cold fear upon him,
Phaethon dropped the reins."
- Ovid "Metamorphoses" (translated by Rolfe Humphries)

Sonata in F Major, K. 78 - Domenico Scarlatti - Pieter-Jan Belder
The first impacts set the increment and the focus, the remainder of the figure establishes the tools and rates of embellishment.
There is a tiny little coda.
Let Me Fly - Sister Fleeta Mitchell, Rev. Nathaniel Mitchell, Lucy Barnes [from Art of Field Recording Volume 1]
Witness.
unfussy piano playing, but it holds the tempo and the swing of it
3 part vocals arranged for a clearly structured variety
clearly structured but not four square constricted
the persons of each voice are distinct
blending at the dialect
Clarinet Concerto : Fire Dances - Deborah Drattell - Seattle Symphony, Gerard Schwarz, David Shifrin
each juiced with fraughtness
starts in the high shrills
drops slowly
into stasis
this is orchestrated
you
can
tell
late model expressionism
once a passage is orchestrated it stays put
it has a cadenza
because concertos do
it's in the book
Before The Beginning - Robert Tree Cody, Will Clipman [from Heart of the Wind]
more like Scarlatti in its thinking
than like Drattell
why?: because it doesn't have moving from itself eventually to be a consideration in what it is building.
If you aren't entirely there
how can you mess around?
Loaded Gun, Loaded Youth - Full Toilet [from Full Toilet 7"]
also, for same reason, more like Scarlatti
and also for its delight in rhythm play
Corollaries (Down's Down) "161011" - Keith Eisenbrey - Keith Eisenbrey
What we have here, friends,
is a list of notes,
crisp and clear.
Sonata in G Major, K. 79 & 80 - Domenico Scarlatti - Pieter-Jan Belder
The harmony changes.
The harmonies change
in order for us to be where we are
with a different view.
composition in the small
Herzgewachse, op. 20 - Arnold Schönberg - Twentieth Century Classics Ensemble, Robert Craft, Eileen Hulse, John Alley, Sioned Williams, Tim Carey
short form operatic fiction thingy
with a truly remarkable high note in it
Sleeping Angel (alternate version) - Stevie Nicks [from Bella Donna]
two over
three
I must say she does seem to be getting a sensual kick out of filling herself with her own head resonance.
You Can Look (But You Better Not Touch) - Bruce Springsteen [from Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Live 1975-1985]
He's telling a story in a noisy room, and bringing the noise of the noisy room along with the story. Plot points get lost in the noise of the noisy room in which a story is told.
My Prayer for Bella - J. K. Randall [from Open Space 39]
breath breaking
heart taking
Preludes in C Major, A minor, G Major, E minor, and A Major - Keith Eisenbrey - Keith Eisenbrey
When I played my C Major Prelude for Ben Boretz a few years ago he commented, after the first measure, "Liebeslied" - that is, acknowledging that this is yet another of my pieces that sprang from his unfinished solo piano "Liebeslied." And of course it's more than the springing from of it. It tracks Ben's Partial piece (the whole of it) rather well, in miniature. Condensed re-composition.
These selections formed the prelude to a service at Langley United Methodist Church in August of 2015.
Why Was I Born - Mark Paschen & Robber's Roost [from Cuatro]
cars come and go like the ocean tide
and singing saw
Sonata in E minor, K. 81 - Domenico Scarlatti - Pieter-Jan Belder
and a quick second movement
from when what a Sonata was was more fluid, invented
for this one you will need to seek assistance
say hey
write something for us to play together
larger scale: I wrote a bunch of them
We'll be a hit!
a perfectly balanced ensemble, like bluegrass string band
American Waste - Black Flag [from The First Four Years]
duality is destiny
virtual contrary motion
always
the center point is the point
the shaking laser point
of it all
Dirty Money - Swing Out Sister [a Rescued Record]
nothing real but the flashing lights that flash
and her rather attractive alto voice
imitatio madonna
Sonata in G major, op. 100 II Larghetto - Antonín Leopold Dvořák [from Naxos The Very Best of Dvorak]
for violin and piano. this is really nice stuff!
Introduction - Your Mother Should Know [Live at Sky Church, November 2011]
traditional and customary
brings up all the
family business
Corollaries (Down's Up) "161021" - Keith Eisenbrey - Keith Eisenbrey
to alphabetize is to shuffle
alphabetize is shuffle to to
the time should flex with pitch !

Banned Rehearsal 1001 - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Steve Kennedy, Aaron Keyt, Neal Kosály-Meyer
We discussed, among other items, how long it might take us to get to 2000, and how old we might be. Perhaps after we retire we can speed production.
