But the practice of sampling is more dozens to hundreds of songs. From presets for digital samplers to data CD-ROMs than a simple modernization or expansion of the number of to hip-hop battle records, sounds increasingly detach from their sources, used options available to those who seek their inspiration in the less as references to any original moment, and more as objects in a continuous refinement of previous composition.

  • Larry Ochs' Interview with Luca Canini for Allaboutjazzitalia.Com Via Email in Winter 2013.(Published April 2013.) Questions
    Larry Ochs’ interview with Luca Canini for AllAboutJazzItalia.com via email in winter 2013.(published April 2013.) Questions in bold. Some years ago, when I first listened to “Electric Ascension”, I was shocked by the intensity and power of the performance: past/future, tradition/innovation. That disc and the few concerts around the world are a deep reflection on jazz, history, improvisation, sound. But everything started back in 1995, when Rova decided to celebrate the 30th anniversary of John Coltrane’s masterpiece. Can you tell me something about the birth of the project? How do you decide to approach such a “problematic” piece (if you consider Ascension a “piece”)? And do you remember the first time you listen to Ascension? I think Coltrane’s “Ascension” is one of the great jazz compositions of all time. A great formal structure; a great piece. Not that I consider myself an expert on all jazz music. I really don’t. But I am an expert on the greatness of that composition. We have played it 11 times as “Electric Ascension.” And yes it is true that we re- arranged the piece and changed the instrumentation, but the basic composition “Ascension” is absolutely at the center of “Electric Ascension;” it totally influences all the music we play in the spontaneous performance. There is no doubt of that. I remember seeing John Coltrane live at the Village Vanguard with his late great quartet in 1967. I was 18. The music overwhelmed me completely. There were maybe 20 people there for that second set of their night.

Box 1246 Waterville, ME 04901 ph. (207) 872-5111 fax (207) 872-5502 e-mail: [email protected] 99 Minutes www.shadowdistribution.com TOUCH THE SOUND takes us on a remarkable journey with Evelyn Glennie, one of the world's foremost musicians, a Grammy-winning classical percussionist whose solo work is unrivalled. She is also deaf. This is her story. Supported by her caring father, Evelyn overcame considerable obstacles to become an extraordinary success. Through her, sound is palpable and rhythm is the basis of everything. Without vibration, there is nothing. From silence to music, from hearing to seeing and to feeling, sound is felt through every sense in our body. Cinematographer and director Thomas Riedelsheimer (director of the award- winning box office success RIVERS AND TIDES) demonstrates his gift for mapping a world of senses, of colourful images and evocative sounds of Japan, England, California and New York. Hearing images, seeing sound. We see, hear and truly feel the beat of the universe. We are transformed. My personal approach Michi excited me. This Marimba piece of the Japanese Muscian Keiko Abe, interpreted by Scottish percussionist Evelyn Glennie, accompanied me through the long phase of the rough-cut of my previous film, Rivers and Tides. At that time I didn’t yet know Evelyn, but the dynamics of the playing, the warmth of the soundscape and the changing sentiments in her interpretations remained in my mind.

Accidents, chance, fate and the elusive quest to make sense out of tragedy underpin director Jennifer Baichwal’s (Manufactured Landscapes) captivating new work, an elegant cinematic meditation on the metaphysical effects of being struck by lightning. To explore these profound questions, Baichwal sought out riveting personal stories from around the world—from a former CIA assassin and a French storm chas- er, to writer Paul Auster and improvisational musician Fred Frith. The philosophical anchor of the film, Auster was caught in a terrifying and deadly storm as a teenager, and it has deeply affected both his life and art: “It opened up a whole realm of speculation that I’ve continued to live with ever since.” In his doctor brother’s laboratory, Frith experiments with his guitar to demonstrate the ubiquity of electricity in our bodies and the universe. Visually dazzling and aurally seductive, Act of God singularly captures the harsh beauty of the skies and the lives of those who have been forever touched by their fury. DIRECTOR’S NOTES I studied philosophy and theology before turning to documentary and, in some ways, the questions I was drawn to then are the ones I still grapple with now, although in a different context. Two of these, which specifically inform this film, are the relationship between meaning and randomness and the classical problem of evil.

This is possible because it is a one-movement piece, but I think there should be another two or three movements. It is such a unique idea that it seems a shame for it to last only twelve minutes. The riskiest pieces have been EM: Do you play a lot with the idea of different sound colours of the instruments or the different performing tra- ditions that are involved? MAT: In a sense the thing that really fascinated me about the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment was the string sound. I went to a rehearsal of them doing a Mozart piano concerto and although I had heard quite a lot of the most rewarding baroque bands and early music groups, I hadn’t actually heard many „live“.
