Subject: sing any note Date: Sat, 7 Mar 92 12:26:18 PST One thing I was really excited to read about was the audience participation aspect of the show. This particularly intrigued me because I had suggested to Trey on the phone that they might try this! That conversation came about as a result of something he said during the post-Somerville interview, that they'd like to tour with a choir, who could (for example) sing a dissonant chord during the jam in Tweezer. I suggested having the audience do it, in response to some sort of signal from the band, and sent him a copy of an interview with Brian Eno where he talks about trying something like this: "I noticed this when I worked on this Cornelius Cardew piece a long time ago called `The Great Learning'. The first instruction is `Sing any note'. You choose randomly. And you do it with a big group of people. And the first chord they hit is very dense and beautiful because people really are singing every note. But they very quickly slide into a few families of notes. And I always liked that first note when you have this beautiful, dense, breathy sound." |
