More from the Judson years (early 60s), instrumental-vocal
works (VOL.1)
Yet not to forget that extraordinary place where so much of
the new and exciting performances at that most interesting
time in New York, took place. There was a Theater there; and a
place for the first Happenings. An Art Gallery... and later
the famous Judson Dance Theater. There was Philip Corner first
performance. The concert was in early 1962, January 2nd, to be
exact. Handwritten change on typescript: Yoko Ono's studio,
changed at the last moment to Judson Church. A lot of players;
and a lot of pieces. Some of my old friends, like Toshi
Ichiyanagi or Richard Maxfield. And a lot of new names from
California, Dick Higgins and Alison Knowles, the connection
between the old New York and this new scene. The creation of
the Dance Theater: Philip Corner involvement with it from the
beginning. Excerpts from the liner notes of Volume One,
written by Philip Corner: 'Passionate Expanse of the Law'
(1959), extract from the first NY performance, featuring
Charlotte Moorman, Philip Corner, Malcolm Goldstein. 'I wrote
this on an Army cot in Texas, in the Fall of 1959; a
continuation of and a major development my exploration of
maximum disjunction.' 'Air Effect' (1961), first performance,
featuring Philip Corner, Alison Knowles, Malcolm Goldstein.
'From 1961 already my music became characterized more and more
by attention to the continuous quality of sound. A chamber
ensemble, dedicated to directness of breathing.' 'OM emerging'
(1971). 'As pure to begin' (1963), Philip Corner, piano with
preparations, objects and amplification. 'The purity of
keyboard sounds turn progressively noisy, effected by the
strings themselves being touched, and touched by objects which
are then laid on them and magnified by microphones'. 'Music,
reserved until now' (1963), recorded at Judson, 1965 and
featuring A-yo, David Behrman, Philip Corner, Malcolm
Goldstein, Dick Higgins, Joe Jones, Alison Knowles, Jackson
Mac Low, Charlotte Moorman, Nam June Paik, Chieko Shiomi. 'A
score for non-traditional sound sources.' 'Composition with or
without Beverly' (1962), recorded at ONCE Festival in 1963;
Philip Corner, piano with prepared tape sounds. Digipack first
press of 1000 copies, including a 12 pages booklet with liner
notes, scores and original documentation.
