[NewMusic] Marco Eneidi's Animal Farm

[Jon Raskin]

Speaking of the material, Rova was performing in Ulrichsburg this weekend
and Alios described a solo concert by Cecil Taylor.  Alois listened to Cecil
practice for 6 hours in the space, working on all sorts of material.  He
said the concert was a distillation of the 6 hours in 60 mintues.

- It is not anymore inefficient than free improvisation. Once you play the
pitches and improvise the objective is met. What takes the most time is
people looking for underlying information when there is none.

PG:
OK!

You've made your point, and it's a good point! There is no underlying
information. Just use the material. It's simple. I agree with you.

But I'm trying to move on to other aspects of this discussion...I posed some
questions. We'll see if anyone takes the bait.
