Mike Mantler and Carla Bley, being the only two non-leader members of the Guild, had decided to organize an orchestra made up of musicians both inside and outside the Guild. This group, then known as the Jazz Composer's Guild Orchestra and consisting of eleven musicians, began rehearsals in the downtown loft of painter Mike Snow for its premiere performance at the Guild's Judson Hall series of concerts in December 1964. The orchestra, set up in a large circle in the center of the hall, played "Communications no.3" by Mike Mantler and "Roast" by Carla Bley. The concert was so successful musically that the leaders decided to continue to write for the group and to give performances at the Guild's new headquarters, a triangular studio on top of the Village Vanguard, called the Contemporary Center. In early March 1965 at the first of these concerts, which were presented in a workshop style, the group had been enlarged to fifteen musicians and the pieces played were "Radio" by Carla Bley and "Communications no.4" (subtitled "Day") by Mike Mantler.

  • Jason Jägel La Machine Molle February 7 - March 27, 2020 Opening Reception Friday February 7, 6-9Pm
    JASON JÄGEL LA MACHINE MOLLE FEBRUARY 7 - MARCH 27, 2020 OPENING RECEPTION FRIDAY FEBRUARY 7, 6-9PM Gallery 16 is pleased to welcome artist Jason Jägel for his second solo exhibition with the gallery, La ​ Machine Molle. Jägel presents a new series of paintings, works on paper and sculptures. There will be an ​ opening reception for the artist on Friday, February 7th, from 6-9pm. ​ ​ La Machine Molle is French for The Soft Machine, the title of a 1961 cut-up novel by American author ​ William S. Burroughs, as well as the name of seminal Canterbury scene band, Soft Machine. After being ​ ​ kicked out of his own band (Soft Machine), Robert Wyatt started a new band which he named Matching ​ Mole, a linguistic pun on the French name for Soft Machine. The images in a new series of paintings refer ​ ​ ​ to the 1972 live performance of Wyatt’s group on the French television program Rockenstock. Jägel broad ​ ​ admiration for Wyatt includes his use of everyday speech, wry humor, and self-referential elements in his lyrics. There is a kinship in the way both Jägel and Wyatt bring together elements of improvisation and lyrical narrative. In his own unique and poetic way, Jason Jägel's work cultivates a strong improvisational component, born out of a form of autobiographical fiction, his love of music, comics, and literary fiction. In the words of Kevin Killian, he is an “ace raconteur” and, above all, Jägel's work tells a story. His compositions often appear as fragments where experiences, dreams, people, places, individual narratives and past experiences intersect and intertwine to create open-ended, conversational stories full of rhythm and flow.

They’d just hired it for a couple of months… …My goal was to make the music I’d actually like to listen to. … …I was clearly imagining life without a band at all, imagining a music I could make alone, like the painter I always wanted to be.” – Robert Wyatt, 2012 Some have called this - the complete set of Robert Wyatt's solo recordings made in the US in late 1968 - the ultimate Holy Grail. Half of the material here is not only previously unreleased - it had never been heard, even by the most dedicated collectors of Wyatt rarities. Until reappearing, seemingly out of nowhere, last year, the demo for “Rivmic Melodies”, an extended sequence of song fragments destined to form the first side of the second album by Soft Machine (the band Wyatt had helped form in 1966 as drummer and lead vocalist, and with whom he had recorded an as-yet unreleased debut album in New York the previous spring), was presumed lost forever. As for the shorter song discovered on the same acetate, “Chelsa”, it wasn't even known to exist! This music was conceived by Wyatt while off the road during and after Soft Machine's second tour of the US with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, first in New York City during the summer of 1968, then in the fall of that year while staying at the Experience's rented house in California, where he was granted free access to the TTG recording facility during studio downtime.

  • 'Pardon Me, I'm Very Drunk': Alcohol, Creativity and Performance Anxiety
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Middlesex University Research Repository ‘Pardon me, I’m very drunk’: alcohol, creativity and performance anxiety in the case of Robert Wyatt Marcus O’Dair School of Media & Performing Arts Room TG53, Town Hall Annexe Middlesex University The Burroughs Hendon London NW4 4BT 0208 411 3717 m.o’[email protected] Abstract Robert Wyatt’s relationship with alcohol is multifaceted. He acknowledges its deleterious effect on aspects of his personal life, most notably on his relationship with wife and creative partner Alfreda Benge, and he has been teetotal since attending Alcoholics Anonymous in 2007-8. In professional terms, however, Wyatt continues to view alcohol positively: as a means to overcome anxiety as a performer and recording artist and as an aid to writing. From this perspective, the fact that Wyatt has not released a solo album since sobering up may be more than mere coincidence. This paper aims to answer two questions. Firstly, what is the evidence that alcohol can reduce anxiety for a performer and recording artist, and increase creativity for a songwriter? Secondly, what is the evidence that this is so in Wyatt’s specific case? In answering these questions, I will draw on secondary research, as well as interviews I conducted with Wyatt and various associated musicians and family members between 2008 and 2013. Introduction Born in 1945, Robert Wyatt came to prominence in the 1960s as drummer and vocalist with Soft Machine – contemporaries of Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd who toured America with the Jimi Hendrix Experience and became the first rock act to perform at the BBC Proms in London.

  • Samon Takahashi G S E Idea of Finding the Recording of Silence
    Samon Takahashi G!""#$%& $% S$'(%)( #e idea of $nding the recording of silence interesting could amuse some, as would indeed the sight of Marcel Duchamp’s Air de Paris. And yet, the same could go into raptures in front of a group portrait of their o%spring, or simply by listening to their favorite music. But it is precisely our subject: silence being recorded, or, when in thoughts associated with an object, can be set, identi$ed, delimited. Silence then becomes a space out-of-nature, ready to dissolve back into it, as does the old family portrait in one’s memory, as does music in the world’s echo. It raises embarrassed smiles because it absorbs everything but one’s fear of oneself. Let’s appropriate Debussy’s proposition “Music is the pause in between notes”, and freely stretch the length between them until the silence becomes concrete enough that their original note of emission, the ‘Anakrousis’, vanishes in ether. #e two framing notes can take any shape external to the music; in fact, they operate as simple markers creating boundaries. #e last spoken word before a si- lence then broken when speech is resumed, the sound of the amp switch-on and the following switch-o%, the turntable’s arm landing on the black and then going back to rest; all will do the trick. #erefore, and unquestionably, each recorded pause becomes music; silence not as noiselessness, but as the locus of all sound- ing possibilities, of all dreamt music. And, as for music, silences come in all forms and styles: more or less evoca- tive, at times loud or of di%erent strength, conceptual or traps, without forgetting those that one needs to $ll up.

  • Karen Mantler by Karen Mantler
    Karen Mantler by Karen Mantler I was conceived by Carla Bley and Michael Mantler at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1965. Born in 1966, I was immediately swept into the musician's life on the road. After having checked me at the coatroom of the Berlin Jazz Festival, to the horror of the press, my parents realized that I was going to have to learn to play an instrument in order to be useful. But since I was still just a baby and they couldn't leave me alone, they had to bring me on stage with them and keep me under the piano. This is probably why I feel most at home on the stage. In 1971, when I was four, my mother let me have a part in Escalator Over The Hill and the next year I sang on another of her records, Tropic Appetites. By 1977 I had learned to play the glockenspiel, and I joined the Carla Bley Band. I toured Europe and the States with her several times and played on her Musique Mecanique album. After playing at Carnegie Hall in 1980, where I tried to steal the show by pretending to be Carla Bley, my mother fired me, telling me "get your own band". I realized that I was going to have to learn a more complicated instrument. After trying drums, bass, and flute, which I always lost interest in, I settled on the clarinet. I joined my elementary school band and quickly rose to the head of the clarinet section. The band director let me take the first improvised solo in the history of the Phoenicia (a small town near Woodstock, NY) elementary school.

  • No Answer I Silence Comments
    NO ANSWER I SILENCE WATT 2/5 Originally released on LP WATT/2 and WATT/5 re-released January 2000 (double CD) COMMENTS Two albums from Michael Mantler's back-catalogue, repackaged. "No Answer" and "Silence", early instances of Mantler's experiments with the setting of literary texts, from 1973 and 1976 respectively, are issued now as a double album. "No Answer" was a bold step into new territory. Jack Bruce, bassist/vocalist from rock group Cream, had proven himself much more than a pop singer on the epic "Escalator Over The Hill", Carla Bley's "chronotransduction", produced by Mantler between 1968 and 1971. On "No Answer" Bruce was given Samuel Beckett's tense/intense texts from "How It Is" to sing, Beckett is celebrated by some commentators for his grim humour. This, however, was never his appeal for Mantler: "I don't care for what people see as the satirical side of Beckett. I don't like the way the plays are produced, for instance. I like to see Beckett's work on a page, printed almost graphically - as a series of events. True, 'Watt' itself is a very funny book, but I never considered putting it to music. I was always so much attracted by the dark side, that was always enough. Enough material for a long time, to stay with that." Bruce's voice, multi-tracked, soars and dives through Beckett's blackest moods, tellingly set by Mantler. An extraordinary performance. There is also intense keyboard work from Carla Bley, without a trace of the whimsy cultivated in later years, and bubbling, speeding trumpet work from the late, great Don Cherry.

Wyatt, Ayers, Hopper and their new friends Daevid Allen and Mike Ratledge formed the Soft Machine; whereas Sinclair and the others went on to form Caravan. Soft Machine (103), one of the greatest rock bands of all times, started out with albums such as Volume Two (mar 1969 - apr 1969) that were inspired by psychedelic-rock with a touch of Dadaistic (i.e., nonsensical) aesthetics; but, after losing Allen and Ayers, they veered towards a personal interpretation of Miles Davis' jazz-rock on Three (may 1970 - jun 1970), their masterpiece and one of the essential jazz, rock and classical albums of the 1970s. Minimalistic keyboards a` la Terry Riley and jazz horns highlight three of the four jams (particularly, Hopper's Facelift). The other one, Moon In June, is Wyatt's first monumental achievement, blending a delicate melody, a melancholy atmosphere and deep humanity.

  • Heteroglossia and ‘Hagiography’: Authorship, Authorisation and the Collective/ Individual Couplet in Different Every Time and Associated Public Works
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Middlesex University Research Repository October 2017 Heteroglossia and ‘hagiography’: Authorship, authorisation and the collective/ individual couplet in Different Every Time and associated public works Marcus O’Dair M00436085 Faculty of Arts and Creative Industries Contextual statement submitted to Middlesex University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD by Public Works 1 Abstract In this contextual statement, I critically reflect on the accompanying public works, including my authorised biography of the British musician Robert Wyatt. The contribution to knowledge is twofold. Firstly, there is the fact that, despite his status as a musician, mine is to date the only Robert Wyatt biography, while one of my journal articles has at least begun to fill the gap in academic literature about Wyatt. The three media articles I submit, meanwhile, are novel in presenting Wyatt not as a lone individual of innate ‘genius’ but as multiply determined – and an exemplar of collective, rather than individual, creativity. Studying Wyatt’s career, then, sheds new light on the tension between the individual and the collective. Wyatt’s career is also worthy of study because his music has been so influential and because Wyatt has been present at key moments in popular history over a prolonged period. Secondly, my contribution to knowledge derives from critically reflecting, in this contextual statement, on what is at stake in writing a particular type of biography: the authorised biography of a living subject. To Renders (2017: 163), such ‘texts by ghostwriters hired by famous people’ can be dismissed as ‘untrustworthy trash’; they are essentially hagiographic.

In December 1973, it added guitarist Allan Holdsworth (recently with Jon Hiseman’s Tempest, and previously Nucleus) to its line-up, which then consisted of Soft Machine founding member and keyboardist Mike Ratledge, along with pianist and saxophonist Karl Jenkins, bass player Roy Babbington, and drummer John Marshall. Jenkins and Ratledge then composed a whole new repertoire, which the band road-tested on extensive tours of North America and continental Europe in the first half of 1974. That material eventually made up Soft Machine’s eighth recording, the first not named after its order of release: the album Bundles, widely acknowledged as a jazz-rock / fusion classic. When released by EMI’s Harvest Label in early 1975, Bundles would secure Soft Machine’s role in the transcontinental jazz-rock pantheon alongside Return To Forever and Mahavishnu Orchestra in the USA, and Nucleus, Brand X, and Isotope in the UK. Soft Machine’s status in the international jazz/rock avant-garde was widely apparent even before Bundles’ official release.
