romualdo Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Have just found the short dance film made by Fred Baker in the summer of '62 - "On The Sound" The soundtrack was produced by Gigi Gryce & his Orch-tette & the three dancers came from the Martha Graham Troupe It won a few awards at film festivals Hard to imagine it was made almost 50 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fer Urbina Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 WOW, thanks! I knew of this, but had never seen/heard it. I'm writing a short piece for my blog. Sadly, Baker died a few months ago. F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) Glad this was unearthed! The soundtrack was mentioned in Noal Cohen and Michael Fitzgerald's 'Rat Race Blues'. Now where is the rest of the session? Edited September 15, 2011 by brownie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
