...Nancarrows amazingly intricate Studies when I was in college and hosting a new music program on WHPK-FM. Nancarrows background (he was in the Lincoln Brigade that fought against Francos fascist government in Spain, which made his continued presence in the US untenable), along with his incredibly focused devotion to his music for player pianos...

Naxos Sonic Revolution

2008-01-07 00:00:00 by newmusicrebloggers in New Music reBlog
 
...Nancarrows Toccata for Violin and Player Piano, a lively piece featuring rhythmically complex music that doesnt take itself too seriously. At the other end of the spectrum is Krysztof Pendereckis moving string orchestra piece Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima, which employs clusters of sounds in a pileup of dissonances, signifying a long...

...Nancarrows polyrythmic experiments are the first things I think about when listening to Eros and then of course Magma. The most sinister flute playing I have ever heard on any album is here. There is generally a very dark atmosphere on Eros. A very strong element in Duns sound is the percussion from Alain Termol which reminds me very much of...

...Nancarrows player piano pieces. Finally there is the weirdness of Paul de Marinis. His Yellow Yankee is a rich and complicated mix of computer keyboard and altered voice but the gem of the album is Eenie Meenie Chilli Beenie. If I was in advertising I would call this a children song for freaked out children which explains why Im not in...

Terry Riley, Bang On A Can All-Stars @ Le Poisson Rouge, NYC

2008-11-09 17:00:43 by Veronica Paez in Sequenza21/
 
...Nancarrows playfulness with tempo and rhythm, that it would have been the perfect follow-up for Marty Mcflys Johnny B Goode. Like the Ligeti piece it followed, there was a strong sense of intentional discontinuity and uneasiness and despite all of the complexities of music written originally for a machine with the ability to outperform the...
