AllenLowe Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) there's something about getting such good reviews for Blues and the Empirical that makes me want to retire - but only after just one more - the next thing is another song project - working title: Experiment in Post-Modern Music: Original Sin participants as of today include: Peter Stampfel - vocals (from the old Holy Modal Rounders) Tyshawn Sorey - drums Kalaparush Maurice McIntryre - tenor Noah Preminger - tenor Ursula Oppens - piano Lewis Porter - piano Matt Shipp - piano Darius Jones - alto Ras Moshe - tenor Me: comb Steven Bernstein - trumpet Randy Sandke - trumpet Jon Erik Kelso - cornet Chris Meeder - tuba Kevin Ray - Bass these are all confirmed; hope I have not forgotten anybody; the music is about 80 percent finished; these will be in a number of different combinations; I also hope to film the session. The only thing I can guarantee is that Chuck Nessa will not be able to lsiten to the whole thing - Edited January 9, 2012 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) well, we're probably going to do one long session. But I can probably sneak you in, if you want. BTw - left out two important participants: William Gay, the novelist, is going to read something for the CD; and Curt Hasselbring will be on trombone.

JSngry Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 You can use access to the sessions as/for a fundraising tool. It's been done before by some of those ArtistShare projects. Seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 oh, I like the sound of that. Thanks for suggesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medjuck Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 You can use access to the sessions as/for a fundraising tool. It's been done before by some of those ArtistShare projects. Seriously. Sackville Records used to do that. I paid to be present for the Don Pullen solo record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 That sounds very cool, Allen! Still got to catch up with your last one, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Pete - I don't know Ross. Will have to check him out. one of the more interesting things is that my prime contacts for this project have been made through - Facebook,. don't know if you guys know William Gay; great Southern writer, there's 2 movies from his books. He seems to like my work, and he's going to read something for this project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete C Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Pete - I don't know Ross. Will have to check him out. Yes, do. He also works with Albey Balgochian, and I believe Dave had a couple of opportunities to play with Cecil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christiern Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Perhaps the group can get gigs through the Facebooking agency? If y'all face it, the Lowe and Beholds will—almost overnight—accumulate more friends than there are notes in 100 Bird solos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) that's an idea, Chris - Schwimmer may play the Continuum, which I am told is a new kind of electronic instrument.
