I recently acquired Dougie Bowne's album "One Way Elevator". It's
a Japanese release (I forget the label) featuring John Medeski on piano
and Fred Hopkins on Bass. They were selling it at the Knitting Factory in
December - I bought it before seeing Greg Cohen's septet (w/ zorn, to add

Okay, I may be opening up a big can of worms here but here goes: can
someone give me the scoop on Keiji Haino?? Since he's got a release on
both Avant and Tzadik, I figure this is a legit question. Let me say that
all I've heard are the Tzadik release (I was disappointed) and a PSF disc
with Barre Phillips and some percussionist (which I found mediocre). The
reason I'm so curious is that the press I've encountered tends to
describe him as an all-out skronker, a sonic terrorist, etc. Any hints,
suggestions, descriptions?
And by the way, regarding Steve's message latest message: William Parker

Bowne is also on Cassandra Wilson's Blue Note release "Moon River Daughter".
Highly recommended!!
I believe he's also on a couple of other Blue Note releases.

Subject: Carnegie Hall
hello.....
the Steve Mackey piece that was performed is called 'DEAL'. In reference
to Frisell and Baron 'dealing' with the different playing situations that
arise in the piece. Or maybe it was Mackey haveing to 'deal' with the
disturbances in his workplace.....geeses, dog, phone ringing.......that
was worked into the piece. I forgot what he said at the preconcert talk.
I thought that Baron and Frisell blended in with the orch very
well...quoting certain passages...adding texture....I was deffinately
paying alot of attention to F&B and not the orchestra....so, i can't
really comment that much on what I thought about the orchestral part of
the piece. Hopefully a recording will come out soon.....i think the
world premiere performance was recorded, the one done in LA last
year....
The Zorn piece was also written for John Cage, Oliver
Messian....and.....the memory fails me again.
The use of percussion in this piece was very cool. and the boy
soprano's......
>From what I read in the NYTimes....the performance was recorded for an AVANT release.
To me, its a piece that needs to be heard a few times to really absorb
whats going on, well, thats my opinion for myself....I need to hear this
a couple of more times....but i like what i have heard so far.
Other Zorn pieces to look out for.....that S. Drury has done, a solo
piano piece called Carny. an orchestral piece for the Brooklyn
Philharmonic-'For Your Eyes Only' kind of like a Naked City tune for
orchestra....i know that the Kronos Qt. has done a piece of his called
the Dead Man....anyone know if its been recorded?? by anyone? i saw the
last few seconds of it done by the Sirius Qt. a while back......
so, Jan. 12 at Carnegie Hall, for me, was a good one......lots of new
music in the air.....

'For Your Eyes Only' was recorded in 91 by the Tokyo Symphony
Orchestra, and it's nice. I heard Kronos do the 'Dead Man' piece, and I
thought it was fantastic--my favorite of Zorn's string quartets.

Re: Dougie Bowne
DIW recently released Dougie Bowne's first album as a composer/leader,
"One Way Elevator", which is a really wonderful jazz trio with John
Medeski (piano) and Fred Hopkins (bass) [Zorn - exec producer]. Since the
Lounge Lizards, some of Dougie's notable recordings have been with
Cassandra Wilson, Alfred 23 Harth, Arto Lindsay, Hoppy Komiyama, Holly
Cole Trio, Chris Whitley (drumming and some producing), Dave Douglas
(forthcoming Sanctuary album on Avant)...and some completely anonymous
session gigs for very huge rock bands with lousy drummers... Pre-Lounge
Lizards, Bowne played for a couple of years with Iggy Pop (ca.Party) and
John Cale. Sadly, Dougie has recently suffered from a nearly crippling
illness but he's making steady progress in his recovery.

He definitely has different moods, depending on which disc you pick up. As
of last count on Dave Keffer's web page (http://www.cems.umn.edu/~keffer/),
he has (or plays on) about 64 albums, most in the last four or five years.
If you want to hear some of his "all-out skronking, sonic terror" check out
EXECRATION THAT ACCEPT TO ACKNOWLEDGE, which I think is on Forced Exposure.
Or check out his Fushitsusha stuff, probably PATHETIQUE (on PSF) or THE
WOUND THAT WAS GIVEN BIRTH TO MUST BE LARGER THAN THE WOUND THAT GAVE BIRTH
(on Blast First, I think).
If you want to see more of his range of moods, check out I SAID, THIS IS THE
SON OF NIHILISM on Table of the Elements, my current favorite. It's one
song, about 1 hour long and displays many shifts of emotion and intensity.
I got the opportunity to see him live at the Table of the Elements festival
in Chicago last November with Fushitsusha and was blown away. Probably the
most intense live show I've seen, definitely the loudest, entertaining at
the very least.
I recommend checking out the web page sometime. I thought my collection was
doing quite well until I did.

Jason,
you are correct about the Haino Avant album. It is untypical of his
output and yes,he is a first rate skronker! He has been around for
over 20 years apparently, recording with a variety of bands and solo.
I havent heard a great deal of his work but he does play truely
terrifying, cataclysmic free-rock guitar improvisations. If you can
imagine a heavy rock Derek Bailey then you are just about in the same
galaxy as Haino. He is prone to 45 minute improvisations involving
massive feedback and metallic noise, also shrieking and shouting when
he gets really emotional. His band Fushitsusha have released a variety
of albums but I can heartily reccomend The Caution Appears. This has a
selection of 'approachable' shortish tracks which are heavy on the
devastating, white noise rock-out! There are a few Haino/Fushitsusha
web pages about, you can find them through Lycos and The Wire magazine
has been covering this kind of mayhem for the last 18 months in a fair
amount of detail.
If you find Haino's sound is to your liking you should also check out
a band called Ascension. They are a UK Free-rock duo (guitar and
drums) and specialise in pulverising, distortion workouts. Their
guitarist Stefan Jaworzyn also runs a mail order list and an improv
label featuring many other acts of disgusting sonic violence.

If it is really written "1-7", my guess is that this should be interpreted
as:
1-3,5-7.

Uh, I'm pretty sure that Zorn's piece for piano & orchestra, premiered by
the American Composers Orchestra is called "Aporias" rather than "Requia".
I don't know whether Black Box is one or two discs (though the works
previously released would all fit on a single disc), but all of Torture
Garden, as released by Shimmy Disc on 12", is NOT on Grand Guignol. GG
only includes those tracks not already released on Naked City.
There were at least a few other pieces in the Torture Garden series that
weren't on the Shimmy Disc release, though. I'd be surprise if there were
enough to make this release two CDs, though.

I agree with Herb. TORTURE GARDEN is barely 30mn and LENG TCH'E barely 25mn.
Should fit perfectly on one CD.

This is a collection of Chadbourne duets with various cool people from
1977 to 1996. The Zorn duet is from 1980, so it's old. The record as a
whole is fine, but nothing spectacular. The Zorn duet is 17:16, for those
who are wondering how much Zorn you'd be getting for your money. The
highlight is either the version of John Lee Hooker's "Whiskey and Women"
with Han Bennink on pizza box, or the duet with the late, very
underrecorded cool saxophonist Charles Tyler.

Subject: Re: zorn faq
I've been out of town for a while, & I'm just starting to think about the
FAQs. The response below to the game piece question may be more complex
than necessary, but I wrote it on the plane back and had way too much time
to think & rewrite stuff. (I checked spellings and added to the list of
game pieces & earlier composers when I got home.) Hope it's not too dry or
detailed.
Loved the suitably flip answer to my sarcastic "is Zorn as old as my dad?"
Anyway,
What's a "game piece"?:
In the late 1970s an early 1980s, Zorn was often quoted as saying "My
concern is not so much with how things sound, as with how things work."
The game pieces were his most concerted early efforts at creating musical
structures that didn't dictate "how things sound."
While most of the game pieces are named after a sport or game (Pool,
Hockey, Archery, Lacrosse, Cobra, Tennis, Golf, Curling, Cricket, Jai Alai,
Go, Sebastopol are among those recorded or other wise referred to), the
term "game pieces" refers as much to the structures of the works. Just as
people playing games or sports must follow certain rules which determine
how they interact, but not exactly what they do (in baseball, for instance,
the infield fly rule says what to do when one occurs, but there is no rule
governing when a player must hit an infield fly), in his game pieces, Zorn
creates structures and situations for improvisors to perform in, while
providing little, if any, actual notated music.
In early game pieces, like Pool & Archery, the structures may be as simple
as providing an order for the possible solos, duos, trios, and quartets
available for a particular size ensemble and then providing specific ways
in which participating musicians can interrupt this order. In several of
these early game pieces, Zorn provides very brief notated material, to be
used by players when or if certain options occur. In later game pieces,
like Cobra (the most recorded and performed of Zorn's game pieces), the
rules are more open (there is, for example, no attempt at having all
possible combinations of players perform together, and there is no notated
material) and the ways in which performers can interupt the proceedings are
more elaborate.
In all of the game pieces a prompter, who does not play an instrument
during the piece, keeps track of where players are within the structure,
making sure that everyone knows what's going on. The prompter acts as a
referee or conductor, making choices when more than one player desires to
interupt the proceedings and otherwise shaping the music as it progresses.
While these pieces, in part, grow out of the modern tradition of aleatoric
and/or intuitive music created by avant garde composers like John Cage,
Earl Brown, Christian Wolff, Pauline Oliveros, Jerry Hunt, Mauricio Kagel,
and Karlheinz Stockhausen, Zorn's game pieces differ primarily in the
nature of the structured interactions and performer choices allowed, and in
Zorn's use of musicians who are (often) more comfortable with improvising
in several styles of music.

A non-digest (direct mail) version of this list is also available; to
subscribe to that instead, replace all instances of "zorn-list-digest"
in the commands above with "zorn-list".
Back issues are available for anonymous FTP from ftp.xmission.com, in
pub/lists/zorn-list/archive. These are organized by date.
