Sein Lebenswerk umfasst mehr als 80 Alben, wovon einige Zeit seines Lebens veröffentlicht wurden und andere posthum. Er machte sich nicht nur einen Namen als Bandleader und Gitarrist, sondern war vor allem als Komponist, der mit seinen musikalischen Werken die Musikwelt polarisierte. Zappas Musik zeichnete sich im Besonderen durch einen Gebrauch der unterschiedlichsten Musikstile und durch ihren experimentellen Charakter aus. Und obwohl er in die Musikgeschichte als Rockkomponist einging, war er doch weit mehr als das. Unter dem Einfluss zeitgenössischer Komponisten, zu denen vor allem Varèse als sein großes Vorbild zählte, schrieb er zahlreiche Kompositionen auch für Orchester. Da Zappa auf Grund seiner „scharfen“ Kritik am „American Way of Life“, die er in parodistischer Art und Weise in den Texten seiner Musik einbaute, von seinen Kritikern den Ruf als Revolutionär und „Bürgerschreck“ bekam, wurde ihm ein gewisser Anspruch auf Ernsthaftigkeit in seiner Musik abgesprochen. Dies hatte zur Folge, dass seine Kompositionen in der „ernsten“ Musik zunächst eher unbemerkt blieben. Erst kurze Zeit vor seinem Tod wurde ihm schließlich durch die gelungenen Aufführungen seines Werks The Yellow Shark, das er gemeinsam mit dem Ensemble

  • Policy Radio!
    Policy Radio! By John Simson Music lovers who enjoy Pandora Internet radio may wonder why they can only skip six songs in an hour and then must wait to skip again. For that matter, why they can’t pick a specific song to hear—instead of creating a channel based upon that song? And why they can’t hear more than 4 songs by their favorite artist in a three-hour period? Congress created all of these limitations and restrictions when it passed legislation in 1995 and 1998 creating the first digital performance rights legislation in the United States. The legislation was a careful balancing act: Congress trying to balance the rights of creators: recording artists, record labels, songwriters and music publishers, along with a new category of content users “webcasters” and satellite radio services included then new services, like Pandora, that desired to stream music across cable wires, from satellites and over the Internet. Of course, for years broadcast radio has streamed music to the public from radio towers, and never had to pay recording artists or record labels for the right to play their music. But radio stations did have to pay songwriters and music publishers through ASCAP, BMI and SESAC (three organizations which represent those who own and compose music). After passage of this historic legislation, “new” services like Sirius and XM satellite radio (now merged as Sirius/XM), Yahoo and AOL Internet radio, and later Pandora and other Internet radio stations, had to pay a royalty to the recording artist as well as the songwriter. Background Music In the early 1990’s, recording artists and their record labels lobbied Congress to pass a comprehensive performance rights bill that included terrestrial radio.

  • A Spasso Con Frank
    Giordano Montecchi A SPASSO CON FRANK Melologo underground intorno al grande Frank Zappa da Baltimora reinvenzioni zappiane di Giorgio Casadei e Emilio Galante 0 [SENZA MUSICA] A Mister Edgard Varèse, 188 Sullivan Street, New York. Agosto 1957 Gentile Signore, forse ricorderà la mia stupida telefonata dello scorso gennaio... Mi chiamo Frank Zappa e ho 16 anni. Le sembrerà strano ma è da quando ho 13 anni che mi interesso alla sua musica. All’epoca l’unica formazione musicale che avevo era qualche rudimento di tecnica del tamburo. Negli ultimi due anni però ho composto alcuni brani musicali utilizzando una rigorosa tecnica dei dodici suoni con risultati che ricordano Anton Webern. Ho scritto due brevi quartetti per fiati e una breve sinfonia per legni ottoni e percussioni. Ultimamente guadagno qualche soldo per mantenermi con la mia blues band, The Blackouts. Dopo il college conto di continuare a comporre e penso mi sarebbero veramente utili i consigli di un veterano come lei. Se mi permettesse di farle visita anche solo per poche ore gliene sarei molto grato. Le sembrerà strano ma penso proprio di avere qualche nuova idea da offrirle in materia di composizione. La prego di rispondermi il più presto possibile perché non resterò a lungo a questo indirizzo. La ringrazio per l’attenzione. Cordiali saluti Frank Zappa Jr. ................... 2 1 PEACHES EN REGALIA [VAMP] I duri del rock lo sentono come loro proprietà esclusiva, come profeta anti- establishment. Gli accademici lo tollerano in quanto compositore... un’eccezione! per il mondo del rock. Chi lo vuole un giullare simbolo della trasgressione più anarcoide.....

What Book? I don't want to write a book, but I'm going to do it anyway, because Peter Occhiogrosso is going to help me. He is a writer. He likes books -- he even reads them. I think it is good that books still exist, but they make me sleepy. The way we're going to do it is, Peter will come to California and spend a few weeks recording answers to 'fascinating questions,' then the tapes will be transcribed. Peter will edit them, put them on floppy discs, send them back to me, I will edit them again, and that result will be sent to Ann Patty at Poseidon Press, and she will make it come out to be 'A BOOK.' One of the reasons for doing this is the proliferation of stupid books (in several languages) which purport to be About Me .

  • Frank Zappa –
    Frank Zappa – Halloween 81 (67:53 + 63:56 + 58:13 + 73:26 + 76:51 +76:52, 6 CDs,Zappa Family Trust, 2020) He’s back to thrill and chill you! Die legendären Zappashows zu Halloween in New York gehen in die nächste Runde. Nachdem bereits die Jahre 1973 und 1977 gewürdigt wurden, sind nun die drei Shows vom 31.10. bzw. 1.11.1981 an der Reihe. Die Auftritte vom 31.10. wurde damals sogar bei MTV (!) ausgestrahlt, während das Material teilweise später auf diversen Alben und Veröffentlichungen Verwendung fand. Die zweite Show kursiert durch die zeitgleiche Live- Übertragung im Radio seit einigen Jahren ebenfalls als Bootleg („Nasty Rats – Live At The Palladium New York 1981“). Die ersten beiden Shows (8 P.M./12 P.M.) entstanden übrigens an einem Abend mit komplett unterschiedlichem Songmaterial und dokumentieren jeweils über zwei Stunden lang die präzise und mitreißende Spielfreude der damaligen Bandbesetzung. Ende der 70er / Anfang der 80er warZappa zwar gewohnt produktiv wie immer, veröffentlichte stilistisch unterschiedliche Alben von modernen Orchesterwerken („London Symphony Orchestra“), Rockoper („Joe’s Garage“) bis hin zu jede Menge Rockalben. Doch trotz des gewaltigen Outputs erreichte er leider nicht mehr die Qualität seiner essentiellen Meisterwerke der 70er, während er und seine wechselnden Mitstreiter auf der Bühne immer noch grandiose Performances boten. So steht bei „Halloween 81“ in erster Linie das konzeptionell geprägte 81er Doppelalbum „You Are What You Is“ im Fokus, wobei bei jedem der drei Konzerte der musikalische Schwerpunkt neben diesem Album und weiterem 80er Jahre Material etwas anders gewählt wurde. CD1+2 greifen vor allem auf „Sheik Yerbouti“ zurück (logischerweise auch mit ‚Bobby Brown‘), CD3+4 bieten diverse Songs von „Zappa In New York“ / „Joe’s Garage“, während CD5+6 zu Beginn sehr tief mit sound- und spieltechnisch modifizierten Klassikern aus den 70ern (u.a.
