There was some talk recently about the fate of Table of the Elements so I thought the following press release (trimmed for space) might be of interest. I don't know anything else despite attempts by myself and an editor to contact ToTE. Lang

Wonder how this compares to, say, the sales of the David S Ware quartet albums (to cite another ill-fated Sony venture), i.e., relatively avant major label jazz.

Yes, those two sets of the middle and late quartets were wonderfully done (from the packaging on down). But of course it's not complete, and likewise the reissue of BSQ's Mozart series was never completed (late quartets never reissued). Also the Schuberts not complete, I think, and I don't think Sony has ever gotten around to putting more than a few snippets of BSQ's recordings of 20th century composers out on CD. Grrrr. I thought that Bridge had just put out some not-so-good-audio live recordings of BSQ's Beethoven, but maybe I'm misinformed. I'll take another look, thanks.

Subject: ELEGY/Jean Genet
I'm still working through Mike Pattons works and now lurking into his territory incorporated with Zorn himself. I picked up Elegy yesterday, have yet to listen to it, but was immediately entranced because it was influenced by the works of Jean Genet (Our Lady of Flowers, Miracle of the Rose, Thiefs Journal) All very enjoyable material. Anyone here familiar with Genet? Thoughts on Elegy? Love it/Hate it?
Any thoughts appreciated.
