I have been listening to a lot of her stuff recently and really liking it especially her solo accordion stuff. I only have a bunch of random mp3s though, does anyone have any recommendations for my investigation (especially accordion stuff)

[Signpost]

Records I've listened (and enjoyed) so far:
Ghostdance
Accordion & Voice
Primordial/Lift (with Grubbs and Conrad)

Pianist Sarah Cahill performs Pauline Oliveros' piece Quintuplets Play Pen: Homage to Ruth Crawford (2001). Cahill at the time spoke of the piece as "a playful polyrhythmic dance. There are layers of counterpoint: a bass line which rings out with help from the sostenuto pedal (Crawfod was very fond of this particular pedal); steady staccato quintuplets; and a delicate melody in sixteenth notes. There are fifteen distinct sections, of ten measures each. I think of their individual characters like members of a dysfunctional family. The closing is vituosic and difficult, with a surprise ending. Pauline remarked that the piece creates a kind of play pen for the ten fingers. I had insisted on a notated piece, since I can't improvise (or won't), and this is the wonderful result. The work is one of a group commissioned by me from various composers in 2001 to honor the centennial of composer and folklorist Ruth Crawford Seeger (1901 - 1953)."

Composed together with Elizabeth Harris (staging) and performed by Stuart Dempster at a concert given in 1965 at 321 Divisidero Street in San Francisco. Charles Boone describes the action and setting preceeding the very theatrical performance involving candles, hose, funnels and other unusual props. From a live broadcast. KPFA had telephone lines installed into the San Francisco Tape Music Center so that concerts before a live audience could be heard live.

San Francisco Chamber Music Society Concert from November 15, 1976. The most unconventional composers in the Bay Area at the time, presented on a series usually host to more conventional classical music. Imagine a fish aquarium with staff lines drawn on it. Now play the fish as they move up and down the scale in the bowl. You have the concept of this infamous work that, for a short time, became the talk of the town here in San Francisco.

Part I:
Ramon Sender: Tropical Fish Opera (1962)
Douglas Leedy: Quaderno Rosiniano (1965)
Charles Shere: Voi Lactee - Screen (1969) & Variations
Morton Subotnick: Play! No. 1 (1964)

Part II:
Robert Moran: Divertissement No. 1 (1967)
Anthony Gnazzo: Five-Part Invention (1972)
Pauline Oliveros: Pieces of Eight (1964 - rev. 1973)

Guys,atari has just cracked an intensely complex joke here!Let's try to put all the pieces of the puzzle together while we've got time.

[atari 2600]

You should leave a comment.

A comment "over there"...
The day is comin
The drums are drummin
If you know one say a prayer.
Theres mothers cryin
And fathers sighin, uh hum
War is in the air.

The trains are fillin up with boys
They've left behind their favorite toys

[PreChorus]
They're goin over there
Over there
Where someone has to die

[Chorus]
Over there, over there
Where ours is not to reason why.
Over there, over there
Where someone has to die
Over there.

Hmmm./.why wouldn't he "talk to you?" ...oh well, tsk tsk...

An ex of mine had this beautiful hand-made Yugoslavian accordion her estranged (parents were divorced) father bought her for high school graduation. It could make some great sounds. You gotta like the way Pauline treats the instrument.
