Re: [microsound] :)



b/c the internet learns russian for me!

I really like these results. while I'd be interested in a more "accurate" translation - this is totally rad. "concert produced to me large impression" or "squeak, swaying and there was respiration not. But nevertheless this - phenomenal record." or "Of tilberi it swung by entire body, it breathed as locomotive, something muttered or even sang."

john tilbury is a beautiful piano player and it is a pleasure to watch him perform. (though I haven't seen him do feldman live, the 4cd set is really great)

zulick, the link don't work/hows the hamptons?

JOHN TILBURY



CONCERT In COLOGNE

During March 2004 in Cologne the work of American composer -minimalista
Morton Feldmana played British pianist John tilberi. Concert produced to
me large impression.
Music Of feldmana, known to me only on the records, seemed me to that dry,
impassive, monotonic, fixed, formal and empty.
John tilberi (elderly heavy person) played it with improbable drayvom. 4
even he said - by rural- wooden drayvom.
Derevyannost' of proceeding cannot be not noted it was. Floor under piano
and chair of pianist squeaked. Chair rocked and squeaked also. Piano was
loose, and it was generally first badly disposed, then, as they say, "it
is prepared": some keys jingled, the sound of another it is rapid glokh.
Of tilberi it swung by entire body, it breathed as locomotive, something
muttered or even sang. After playing page, it threw it to the floor, and
after being tangled in the bundle of notes, made pause, it then took chord
as if nothing were the matter, as if the length of this pause on the
search for the following note page was specified by composer.
Zvukoizvlecheniye was the very living, mobile and squeaking matter. And
which most surprising - music moved.
On the CD, which I purchased after concert (4CD, "MORTON FELDMAN all piano
John Tilbury"), squeak, swaying and there was respiration not. But
nevertheless this - phenomenal record. On the opinions of many - the best
record of the works of Morton Feldmana for fortepiano.
