Description: Another oldie, just happened to dig it up and it seemed fun since I hadn't touched it in many years. I was really interested in parallelism and in quartal harmony at the time, and I enjoy how this walks the line between new agey stuff and something a little darker.

Nixie

This is the second movement of a piece I wrote called
"Quartet for Button Reeds and Strings". 
Inspired by works such a Beethoven's Op. 132 and the works
of Samuel Barber and Charles Ives, this chamber work was written in 2013.

Carla Kountoupes - violin
Shanti Randall - viola
Deborah Unger - accordian
Jeremy Bleich - toy clarinet



Quartet For Button Reeds And Strings - II  - j.bleich

So - after the Ornetc. gigs at Skylight, the place turns into a bona fide dance club. We generally save our most 'extreme' material for the end and thus the people pining to dance early & often generally get a good snootful of free jazz. Since this piece always starts off with a drum solo, I attempted (not very successfully) some sort of compromise...

Ornette Disko Fantasy: T&T - Lonely Woman

Matt Deason - bass; Robert Muller - keyboards; Ross Hamlin - guitar; Elliot Ryan - percussion; Dave Wayne - drums. Recorded Nov. 2008 by Ullas Fowler & Dahvin Bugas at this little (now defunct) studio next door to the GiG Performance Space. This is some improvised-but-grooving material with a strong early 70s fusion thing going on.
