  • Do-It-Yourself DOWNTOWN by Arnold Dreyblatt, 1995 the New Music Scene in New York 1970-1984
    do-it-yourself DOWNTOWN by Arnold Dreyblatt, 1995 The New Music Scene in New York 1970-1984 When speaking about the developments among New York music composers within the last twenty years, it's perhaps a too often used cliché to speak of American individualism, eclecticism and a "do-it-yourself" culture. Yet, from the perspective of Europe, where I've been based since leaving New York in 1984, the contrast seems all too clear. The explosion of creative activity which centered around New York in the early sixties mirrored developments in the arts as a whole, so we might at first take a look at the birth of this "New Music" scene within a larger cultural context. In the States there has always been very little vertical movement between large- scale official art and what one might call the independent non-academic alternative. Avante-garde theater directors couldn't produce in a State theater or opera house without renting it themselves; experimental films and art video tapes would only rarely be shown on television and radio stations don't commission composers. As I began work in music composition, an important model for me had been the approach of American experimental non-narrative film. This important movement, still relatively unknown in Europe, has been unofficially led since the sixties by Lithuanian immigrant poet and filmaker Jonas Mekas who proposed a "Personal Cinema" as an alternative to the Hollywood. In lieu of the production baggage of producer, cameraman, editor etc., filmakers in the sixties took control of the means of production and distribution, utilizing inexpensive home movie technology, setting up a network of unofficial cinema "cooperatives" and publishing critical journals.

  • Liner Notes, Visit Our Web Site
    Resonance, Decisions, Freedom: The Music of Peter Zummo With accuracy and humor, Peter Zummo (born 1948) often describes his unique music as “minimalism plus a whole lot more.” He is an important exponent of the American contemporary classical tradition whose compositions explore the methodologies of not just minimalism, but also jazz, world music, and rock, while seeking to create freedom in ensemble situations. Zummo’s realization of the contemporary urge to make music that behaves like “Nature in its manner of operation” (John Cage) is to encourage spontaneous, individual decisions within a self-structuring, self-negotiating group of performers. His scores provide unique strategies (such as a “matrix of overlapping systems,” freely modulating repetition rates, etc.) and materials for achieving that aim. Zummo has also designed new instrumental techniques for the trombone, valve trombone, dijeridu, euphonium, electronic instruments, and voice, and performed and recorded his work and that of others worldwide. The origin and nature of these ensemble freedoms and instrumental techniques form the subjects of this essay. (The composer’s comments, in quotes below, are from an interview on August 24, 2006, in New York City.) Instruments (1980) Following his early classical music studies and graduation from Wesleyan University, Zummo moved to New York City in 1975. “At the time, I was aware of the Fluxus movement, the Grand Union [a New York-based ‘anarchistic democratic theater collective’ (Steve Paxton) of avant-garde dancers formed in 1970] and that generation of free-thinking artists. I respected them a lot. I considered myself half a generation behind them but shared their mindset of free-ranging exploration.

  • Gibson Stakes out a Small but Verdant Territory More Satisfying Than the Concrete Landscapes of Many More Ambitious Minimalist Oeuvres
    Gibson stakes out a small but verdant territory more satisfying than the concrete landscapes of many more ambitious minimalist oeuvres. — Kyle Gann Composer, multi-instrumentalist, and graphic artist Jon Gibson (b. Los Angeles, 1940) had quite diverse interests from an early age. As a child he was preoccupied, even obsessed, with art, spending countless hours in his room painting and drawing. Throughout his education he took art classes, including drafting, and considered pursuing art as a career. His mother, herself a musician, essentially forced the young Gibson to play music as a way to get him out of his room. He started with the drums (too loud for mom) and later the saxophone. A passion for jazz ensued from his teenage years that eventually extended to other forms of improvisation. Studying classical music in college, he took a wide variety of music courses and was exposed to a much larger musical world, including avant-garde, experimental, and non-Western musics. In addition to the improvisatory New Music Ensemble, a composers’ and performers’ group from the University of California, Davis, Gibson was a member of an improvising ensemble assembled by friend Steve Reich, who had not yet composed any works that might be considered minimalist. Musicologist Ross Cole writes: “In 1963, Reich made the decision that he would perform in all his future instrumental pieces, as it seemed that ‘a healthy musical situation would only result when the functions of composer and performer were united.’ The first step he took in this direction was to form a free improvisation ensemble. Members of the group—including Jon Gibson (clarinet), George Rey (violin), Gwen Watson (cello), Paul Breslin (bass), Tom Constanten (keyboard)—met ‘at least once a week for about six months’ to rehearse.
