Eighth Blackbird - Fred (2005)
Music of Frederic Rzewski (b. 1938)
Classical | EAC (APE & CUE) | 193 MB

Frederic Rzewski's musical languages cover the full range of contemporary techniques, from 12-tone and densely pounded clusters to several varieties of Minimalism, but his work virtually always draws its energy from an intense dramatic sense. The ensemble Eighth Blackbird illuminates that quality most vividly in the harrowing "Coming Together" (1971), based on a letter of Sam Melville, a prisoner killed in the rioting at Attica.

    Tracklist

    1–6 Pocket Symphony (2000) (27:38)

    7 Les Moutons de Panurge (1969) (11:38)

    8 Coming Together (1971) (arr. Matt Albert, 2000/2003) (18:51)

    Molly Alicia Barth (Flute)

Thanks! What do you know! A few days ago I went to eighth blackbird's concert. Very interesting music. And they played Les Moutons de Panurge! Quite good, considering how the music is scored. I also happen to have their CD called strange imaginary animals ( with music by Higdon, Mackey etc.)

I have yet to see these guys live, although I've had a couple chances. I sure wish I had.

I also have that other CD. I'll consider sending it upstream sometime later.
