| |
| "Rainforest (Version I, Music for Dance)" is a wonderful live |
| electronic work that has become a new music classic since its |
| creation in 1968 for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company. Performed |
| throughout the world, the 21-minute dance was also notable for its |
| stage set that included helium-filled reflective silver mylar |
| pillows designed by Andy Warhol. "Version I" was performed by |
| Takehisa Kosugi and David Tudor in eight channels for a sound |
| system that surrounded the audience. Long sustained tones produce |
| a mysterious sustained atmosphere, semi-melodic phrases seem like |
| small bagpipes, a pulse of short string-plucking sounds is |
| produced, and a variety of raw and pure waveforms create a dense |
| forest of electronic birds, frogs, and other unnamed creatures. |
| "Sliding Pitches in the Rainforest in the Field: Rainforest |
| (Version IV, Electro-Acoustical Environment)" was first created in |
| 1968 at Chocorua, NH. Inside a large barn, many unique, vibrating |
| resonant objects (bells, beams held between the teeth, dual metal |
| transducers, parabolic reflectors attached to circular hat-like |
| cages, etc.) were suspended from the ceiling, and the audience |
| moved throughout the space interacting with the ear-level objects |
| and appreciating the gentle sounds emitted by them. This piece was |
| developed by Tudor with many other composers and artists (Phil |
| Edelstein, Bill Viola, Andres Zravic, John Driscoll, Michael |
| Quigly, Nick Collins, Ralph Jones, Martin Kalve, Linda Fisher, |
| Prent Rodgers) from 1968 to 1982. The electronics heard as sources |
| in "Version I" ù the calls of electronic birds and other creatures |
| ù now cause the objects' vibration over a seemingly vast and dense |
| landscape. AMG Review |
