These are studio recordings for a planned CD (but never released - I honestly can't tell you why) of selected arias/songs from the American Trilogy a set of three experimental music theater works- Slow Fire (1985-88), Power Failure (1989) and Pioneer (1990). These songs were meticulous studio recordings produced by Jay Cloidt working in my home studio (with one exception, "Cortez" was taken from a live two track recording also engineered by Jay Cloidt). 

While I composed the music for all these works (with two songs contributed by Terry Allen in Pioneer), they were all collaboratively-created and performed by the following teams of artists: 

Slow Fire - text and performance (vocal and physical:  Rinde Eckert; directed by Richard ET White, Paul Dresher: electric guitar, keyboard and live tape loop processing: Gene Reffkin - drums, Jay Cloidt - sound design & audio engineering; produced by Robin Kirck. 

Power Failure:  Rinde Eckert: libretto, tenor; John Duykers - tenor, Thomasa Eckert - soprano; Stephanie Friedman - mezzo soprano; directed by Richard ET White and Tom O'Horgan,  Saxophone and Bass Clarinet - Ned Rothenberg; Keyboard - Miguel Frasconi: Gene Reffkin - drums; Paul Dresher - electric bass, keyboard; Jay Cloidt - sound design & audio engineering; produced by Robin Kirck. 

Pioneer:  Directed by Robert Woodruff; text by Rinde Eckert, Terry Allen, Jo Harvey Allen and historical sources (most of the songs excerpted here are from actual true historical sources);  Rinde Eckert - tenor; Jo Harvey Allen, speaking voice; John Duykers -  tenor; Phil Aaberg - keyboard, Craig Fry - violin, Gene Reffkin, drums; Paul Dresher - electric guitar, bass, keyboard; Jay Cloidt - sound design & audio engineering;  produced by Robin Kirck.

Riot Of Spring (excerpt) by 16 Stravinskys

Miguel Frasconi is a composer and improviser whose instrumentarium includes glass objects, electronics and instruments of his own design. His glass objects are struck, blown, stroked, smashed and otherwise coaxed into vibration, while his unique approach to composition takes a similar approach, yet solely in the sonic domain. His array of activities have included collaborations with the Balinese composer Dewa Berata on music for a large-scale shadowplay, with operatic tenor John Duykers on unique music/theater events, and with the Tibetan songwriter Techung, with whom he has toured throughout India. He has composed chamber music, most recently for Ensemble IPSE; operas, most recently for Experiments in Opera; and numerous dance scores, most notably as music director for dance pioneer Anna Halprin. In 2017 his live score for Ripe Time’s production of Haruki Murakami’s Sleep was performed at the BAM Next Wave Festival. Miguel has works closely with composers John Cage, Morton Subotnick, Pauline Oliveros, James Tenney, Joan La Barbara, and Jon Hassell. In 2012 the New York Times called his CAGE100 Festival @ The Stone "one of the best observances of John Cage's 100th birthday" and included performances by his Noisy Toy Piano Orchestra and John Cage Variety Show Big Band. He was a founding member of The Glass Orchestra, the internationally renowned ensemble featuring all glass instruments (1977-86), and the San Francisco sound-sculpture band Mobius Operandi (1990-95) and has performed as a keyboardist with the Paul Dresher Ensemble (1988-95) and the Philip Glass Ensemble (1992). His music has been released on New Albion, Porter, and Clang.
