A Note from Your Mad Discographer, on The Deep Digging; The Incantations; The Inspirations; All These Words...

     I’ve been deeply involved in the arts since the mid-’70s, but I’ve never known how to monetize my talents. I’ve never had a hint
     of financial savvy; I am—like a clueless child—almost entirely dependent at the age of 69 on next week’s pay-check; and I am
     “unaffiliated” and on my own here. I also get constant feedback from people all over the world who’ve been telling me, lo these
     many decades, that the work I do is invaluable... And so I’m reaching out.
     There are expenses I constantly struggle to meet: website hosting, an Adobe account for the software that makes the website
     and book layouts possible, subscriptions to newspaper archives, and numerous other expenses. Then there are the absurd number
     of hours I feel compelled to spend gathering and organizing and formatting the information that I find.
     I receive a Social Security check that meets just about half of my living expenses, and I drive a tiny school bus part-time for
     a daycare center that barely covers the rest. So if you appreciate the work that I do and are willing and able to help a boy out
     with any amount, either one-time or monthly, I would be most grateful. —RL

     (And the scant book monies go toward the next publication, Ed Hazell’s Energy Center: A History of Studio RivBea 1972-1978.)

    On the Orlando set at The Social, 04.09.24 : : :

    While Jeanne threatened Orlando this weekend with hurricane-force winds, West Coast power-trio the Melvins arrived
    at The Social Friday night armed with pure rock power...
    Trevor Dunn’s Trio Convulsant opened the show with a meandering set that ranged from quiet to cacophonous, alternating
    between power and finesse. The jazzy three-piece featured the magenta-haired band leader’s meaty upright bass, backed by
    mousy-yet-mighty guitarist Mary Halvorson and elastic drummer Ches Smith, who sported a torn cymbal and a black eye.
    They toyed with the audience for nearly an hour, changing tempos at will in songs that left most Melvins fans scratching
    their heads rather than banging them...

     “Bassist Colin Meeder randomly asked Mary and I to record at Peter Karl’s Gowanus Studio in maybe 2003 or something. Not certain.
     Colin used to play bass in The Hated who are kind of a legendary DC band. He was visiting New York from Austria where he lives

    • 06.11.10 - Mary Halvorson & Jessica Pavone Duo:
      Halvorson (g), Pavone (va) / Wels Unlimited Festival, Wels, Austria
    • “Mary Halvorson and I played our first duo gig in Europe at the Wels
      Festival. We discovered Mars (yes, astro-geeks even back then), got food
      poisoning; her puking before the show—me after, and spent the weekend
      in our hotel room with the shakes—shitting, puking, and watching the Animal Planet channel.

      Returning back to the Wels Festival this November! [17.11.10-12] This time, Mary has curated the festival and I am playing a solo set and with the Vienna-based ensemble, GABBEH.

      Hoping for just as memorable an experience...”

      “Composed in 1998 for E#’s ensemble Orchestra Carbon, SyndaKit utilizes a collection of biological metaphors to create
      an ever-shifting rhythmic and timbral matrix. Improvisatory and algorithmic but not improvisation, SyndaKit’s essence
      is a transformative organism consisting of 144 composed Cores on 12 sheets divided among the 12 players with a set
      of simple rules for their use through processes of imitation, addition, recombination, transposition, and mutation. These
      actions are based on the activities of flocking birds, African drum choirs, cellular automata, hunting packs, and recombinant
      amino acids.” —Downtown Music Gallery

    —Recorded “At end of 2008,” after Ho’s residency at University of Wisconsin, which ran from September 2 through December 11, 2008.

     “I returned from teaching in the Midwest on December 12, 2008... The day after
     I returned, I plunged into massive rehearsals with the Green Monster big band,
     a new large ensemble I had assembled, to do a new recording of my extended
     big band compositions, a project I am calling ‘the celestial green monster’...
     We worked for three days straight and knocked out the project in less than
     seven hours in the recording studio.” —Fred Ho

     “An unusual project, purposely composed for this festival, focused on mixing the expressionism of Kurt Weill and Hanns Eisler with written
     avantgarde and improvisation, adding moments of Morricone’s musicality. Modette is actually a theatrical work started in 1981 based on lyrics
     by Allan Graubard. These are supposed to be ‘songs’ interpolated with improvisations, but I really don’t get any ideal tracksplit.”

    Spirited be crunchy melodies mix in intuitive harmony. The two-sided
    Arpeggioläufe beat like a zipper into one another the teeth. Bergmann
    whirls Mary’s capers—it’s anything but a lamb—with einverständigem
    Gusto. Halvorson shows a great mood, and fast-paced trick. Bergmann
    has her [sic] hands full trying to equally wasteful to spread the salt of the
    earth. Some relaxed passages draw breath for more stair sprints, which
    you clearly sounds the fun of shared thoughts rapidity of the fingers.

    This savory highlight in Halvorson’s discography also brings the mudoks

    “[Wooley] thanked the 40 or so members of the audience for being
    attentive and told them that it was the largest crowd Crackleknob
    had ever performed before. About 20 minutes in, he asked whether
    there was time for another number. His reserve felt like a form of
    boldness. It might help to know that Mr. Wooley grew up in a small  
    fishing village in northern Oregon, that he’s sometimes considered
    part of an aesthetic of improvising called lowercase, and that he
    doesn’t consider himself an adherent to it.”

    • “Artist/composer Christian Marclay (b. 1955) is known for his distinctive fusion of image and sound. Celebrated as a pioneer
      of turntablism, Marclay transforms sound and music into visual and physical forms through performance, collage, sculpture,
      large-scale installations, photography, and video. This groundbreaking Whitney exhibition—activated by daily concerts and
      continually evolving—explores Marclay’s approach to the world around him with a particular focus on his “graphic scores”
      for performance by musicians and vocalists. Visitors to the Whitney will be encouraged to mark up a wall-sized chalkboard,
      with musical staff lines, thereby creating a collective musical score which will be performed throughout the run of the show.
      Other Marclay scores, including the premiere of a new scrolled vocal work forty feet in length and three scores conceived as
      projections, will be continually on view and performed on a regular basis. World renowned musicians and vocalists, some of
      whom have been regular collaborators with the artist for three decades, will interpret a dozen scores, enabling museum
      audiences to experience a less well known aspect of Marclay’s varied art practice.”

    —CD cover

    —Test Pressing LP

    Noisey: So what made you want to do this Nina Simone record?
    Jamie Stewart: Well, I was very drunk and feeling incredibly sorry for myself at the time that it crossed my mind to do it. I was on tour
    with Swans, and I played a show that just sucked. And they played, and they were amazing every single night. Michael Gira and I were
    talking about how much we both love Nina Simone, and I was sitting backstage and drinking like an idiot and put on my headphones
    and started listening to Nina Simone records. It is my usual trajectory just to feel bad and just dwell for a long time, but I was listening
    to Swans sort of bleed into the headphones, playing really, really wonderfully and thinking about the difficulties of their very long and
    checkered career. They have been at it three times as long as I have and are only getting better, it would be absurd for me to quit. Nina
    Simone’s music is way technically over my ability, but it seemed like something that, if I was gonna force myself not to quit, it had better
    be with something that was going to be incredibly challenging for me to do.

    How did you pick the songs?
    I'd never been much of a record collector. I usually listen to a small amount of records really excessively, and I only had three Nina Simone
    records [laughs]. But they were three records that, without exaggerating, really changed my musical life. I knew them really well and
    appreciated them tremendously. To be corny, they touched my heart. I think it was smart, if I knew her entire catalog, it would have taken
    10,000 years to pick from her repertoire. I had like 25 songs to pick from. I just picked ones that I like and that I felt that, as a middle-class
    white guy, it would either not be absurd for me to sing or would be so absurd for me to sing that it could possibly get over.

    How much of the album was orchestrated versus improvised?
    Well, the people who played on it are about the best players that there are. Ches Smith, who did all the arrangements, he has several groups
    but it’s the lineup for his own band [on this record]. We did two real quick rehearsals and then recorded it all in one day. They're just
    motherfuckers, I think all of them were first or second takes. I think there was maybe like one edit. They're astounding players. It melted
    my brain, listening back to it. Ches worked on the arrangements for months—a testament to it having worked so well is that he put an
    incredible amount of time into it. It wouldn’t have been so easy if the arrangements weren’t so brilliant.

    Were you surprised by anything the songs brought out of you when you took on this project and started singing?
    There’s no way to say this without sounding like a total douche, but there’s a tonality in my singing voice that I had not heard before. That
    had a lot to do with just the range of the songs and the phrasing, it’s really different than something I would write myself. And I couldn’t
    do it in my regular singing voice, except for maybe one or two of them. So that was surprising. But there was just a sort of very different
    sound coming out of my mouth than I had heard before.

      Peter Brötzmann-inspired Machine Gun Pepper Sauce, the emboldened
      aesthetes at the cm5 present our next premium, again courtesy of the desk
      of our own Jim Ivy. It’s the Mary Halvorson “Of Strings and Things...”
      paper-doll set. This limited edition three-sheet set includes accurate
      depictions of Mary’s guitars, pedals, and amp. Playtime becomes
      instruction time! Page three includes drummer Tomas Fujiwara and five
      hard-hitters from the Sam Rivers Rivbea crowd.

    “Anthony Braxton’s Sonic Genome realizes the potential of the improvising orchestra: that magic
    moment before the concert where the swelling sound of the tuning is full of promises that rarely
    are fulfilled by the actual program that will be played.

    At the same time it captures the joyous spirit of the marching band—everybody smiles when a band
    goes by, no matter how good or corny it is. Around the band a community instantly grows.

    Street musicians, buskers, are now keeping music alive in our cities. In the Sonic Genome the rigid
    borders between performers and listeners, stage and audience, are broken and the music flows
    freely around like in a street performance.

    The sound is an exploration of one’s own sonic environment, obliterated by canned music funneled
    directly into our ears in order to forget our surrounding. Echoes, reverberations, call and response
    in space help sound proprioception and realization.

    It is a ritual for our times, when traditional rituals largely lost spiritual content and social rituals
    are dominated by a hierarchy of values determinated by profit and business.”

  • : : : Doek Festival 2015 : : :



    “The confluence of birthdays of American saxophonist Anthony Braxton (June 4th) and Dutch piano iconoclast Misha Mengelberg (June 5th)
    has been sufficient cause for joint celebrations in the past. This year it spawned a whole festival. While Mengelberg (80) was not present due
    to illness, Braxton (70) was, bringing with him a coterie of young acolytes from the Tri-Centric Foundation. They joined forces with DOEK,
    the Amsterdam-based improvising collective, for six days of performances of members' compositions and spontaneous improvisations...”
    —John Sharpe New York City Jazz Record

    Open rehearsals, talks, interviews and, of course, lots of concerts. The focus will be on the work of Anthony Braxton. The whole festival
    will deal with the boundaries between composition and improvisation and will also feature pieces by Misha Mengelberg and various
    members of Tri-Centric and Doek.

    —Tuesday, June 2
    During the first two days of the Doek festival the musicians will be diving into the improvisational laboratory, discovering each other's
    musical language and playing together in various line-ups.

    —Another source added Taylor Ho Bynum, Michael Moore, and Onno Govaert, but multiple mentions of a “nine-piece” indicate otherwise. —RL

    “Interspersed among these big pieces were five improvising subgroups curated by Doek cornetist Eric Boeren, featuring almost every member
    of the ensemble. They ranged from the unlikely (a sort of loud chamber trio: Vincent Chancey on french horn, tenor sax howler John Dikeman,
    and skronky guitarist Brandon Seabrook) to a lyrical quintet (Bynum, Oliver, alto saxist Michael Moore, bassist Wilbert de Joode and pianist
    Kaja Draksler). And there were two fine improvised quartets. One mixed pairs of regular collaborators—Doek brassmen Boeren and trombonist
    Wolter Wierbos, Tri-Centric’s Laubrock and guitarist Mary Halvorson)—that started with fast chatter and quickly turned lyrical. The other quartet
    served up a terrific burst of improvised electronic music, with James Fei on the crackle synthesizer (an eccentric—and rarely heard—device
    developed at Amsterdam’s STEIM in the 1970s), and Oscar Jan Hoogland on its tiny cut-rate counterpart, the crackle box (as well as electric
    clavichord); they were buttressed by the band’s highly compatible drummers Michael Vatcher and Onno Govaert, who came up with some
    electronic-sounding timbres of their own.” —Kevin Whitehead

  • 15.06.04 - Braxton at 70—Transatlantic Encounters / 8:30pm, Bimhuis, Amsterdam, Netherlands

    Taylor Ho Bynum (cor), Vincent Chancey (frh), Mary Halvorson and Brandon Seabrook (g), Tomeka Reid (ce), Carl Testa (b, elec)

    “[Braxton] will also conduct some of his classic music for large groups... Rehearsing sections of his boisterously swinging big-band opus
    Composition 92, at first he'd count the music off at a forbidding tempo, then on subsequent passes slow it down to a manageable level.
    ‘Okay—this is going to be fun,’ he said, before moving on to the very different, chamber music-y Composition 56 (first heard under
    a graphic title as track 2 on his milestone album Creative Orchestra Music 1976). Here the time is floating, throughout the course
    of several notated episodes (to be interspersed with improvisations in the concert). Rehearsing Composition 89 with its collage effects—
    a piece ‘three-dimensional rather than linear’—he did his best to keep the interpreters' enthusiasm in check. He directed them to perform it
    ‘in the pianissimo issimo issimo world... Think it terms of transparency; if you can’t hear the piano or cello, you're probably playing too loud.
    When indecision comes, default to the pianissimo.’” —Kevin Whitehead

    Second Set—Tri-Centric Foundation + DOEK: Braxton (as, ss, sss, Cond, Comp), Ingrid Laubrock (ts, ss), John Dikeman (ts, bar),

      “I assume that Halvorson’s set is the end of the show. She and Smith are on a ‘double solo’ tour, traveling together but playing solo.
      Except tonight. While setting up earlier they overhear Steve and James talking and realize that the Quinn’s contingent thinks that
      the guitarist and drummer will be playing together. ‘There was a generous spirit in the house and they responded by doing a third
      set together,’ Steve later says. ‘Everything I've seen about their subsequent shows seems to indicate two solo sets and no more.
      We were privileged.’” —Mike Faloon, October 19, 2015 gometric.typepad.com

      “Halvorson delivered a kind of disclaimer towards the end of her second set: ‘I don’t normally play this many sets solo, so I'm going
      to be playing some new stuff for the third set,’ she said. A pause. ‘I'm not sure whether I'm telling you to leave or stay.’ Luckily for those
      who stayed, the third set offered some of the evening’s gems, among them a haunting Paul Motian tune and a shapeshifting version
      of Thelonious Monk’s ‘Ruby, My Dear.’” —Mark Mahoney

     “On Sunday Night, there will be something that is a cross between a gig, a workshop, and an open rehearsal for a new band of mine...
     I've been trying to write music that has as little conscious connection to any forms that I've been interested in as possible—to try
     and compose things that, personally at least, exist outside of my misunderstanding of Marcuse’s dialectical circle. We'll give one
     of those pieces a shot on Sunday night and also do some improvising and shoot the breeze with whomsoever would like to show up.”

    1.
    I have here in my rotation
    It is not predictable my mind
    Potential to deal a dangerous lie

    It is not predictable my mind
    And if i disappear it is for this
    It is not predictable my mind

    Enormous in its attempts
    The pull is still here i find
    Lost in spectacular performance
    The pull is still here i find
    Past the division the joy of forgetting
    Rhe pull is still here i find

    Status is an obstacle
    Reconstruction is required in time
    The storm that sends us smoking
    Reconstruction is required in time
    Into some other life or another
    Reconstruction is required in time

    2.
    Nerves strike the death of a wife
    Her arms spread apart
    Yielding the revolving sky

    This splendid object is
    Swallowed by your voice

    Deceptive euphoria
    She remains stretched
    By the force of your breath
    The vulture star
    Ignores the receding wave

    Sound only comes after death
    To lull to sleep
    A misunderstanding
    When pluto’s tears
    Melt into song

    3.
    Do not forget your head
    In the back of your mind
    Landslides bury the gold
    landslides bury the gold

    Children passing notes
    A rug placed on the floor
    Blown by eastern wind
    Blown by eastern wind

    Form rising from steam
    Exhausting one’s own choir
    Salty droplets cloud you
    Salty droplets cloud you

    A butterfly on display
    The beauty of its wings
    Punctured by a pin
    Punctured by a pin

    The clearing of the storm
    Finds extra ordinary lives
    Pulsing behind the blood
    Pulsing behind the blood

    4.
    These days i drink less coffee
    And have less laughing to do
    But often recall the lavish roars
    We chalked up on the road

    Inside the country’s blurry nights
    The divine unfamiliar places
    A glow through driving windows
    Best distorted by the rain

    The decade since was lost
    To telescopic motion
    repeating colorless faces
    big deal pretty mountain

    These days there’s no real light here
    It’s mostly sharply dull
    And certainly none will appear again
    So wondrously out of so little
    Big deal pretty mountain

    5.

    6.
    Tangent to
    The intense
    Quiet power

    Already there
    In the second before
    It reaches the eternal
    Fragrance
    Of your hands and feet
    You may not know
    That it’s easy
    But his voice comes
    Out of the sound
    Of the million people
    We are known
    To discard

    7.
    Pass through
    Comforting threads
    Fierce sleep

    Inside breath
    Double pocket
    Split mental
    Cross eyed
    Upgrade spirit
    Disorder

    Carpet door
    Same mistake
    Case sensitive
    Thought free
    However used
    Static weakness
    Rigid dismantling
    Another rebel
    Choked

    Original error
    Terminal insides
    Searing body
    Multiple envy
    Internal voltage
    Triggering events
    Break control
    Remove threat
    Independent

    8.
    Focus on the other
    Each of them
    Without falling

    And or closing
    And or finding
    Your time

    Her magnitude
    Catches flame
    It must be
    The stars
    They all shrink
    And or try

    The beast
    Ascends
    The ramp
    You smile vaguely
    Then retreat

    Walk
    And or crawling
    And or loping
    In the dark

    Step
    Toward the edge
    Of the dive
    Copper on liquid
    It must be
    The stars

    You roll down
    A small hill
    On the other side

    9.
    Trying to breathe
    While in water
    Only small pockets

    Of air
    In the sky

    Why
    In the water
    Does laughing make you
    Sink

    When you die
    At least it’s from a laugh
    Not a

    You shrink
    Before the massive
    Expanse of patchy
    Patchy patchy
    Sky

    10.

    11.

    12.
    You squeezed the background out
    With your hand
    Evil
    Pure
    And
    And
    And

    13.
    My most recent experiences
    Reflected in the short space of time
    When i so precisely arrived
    Astonished in all that i wanted
    It was only perfect

    If you have not completed
    An announcement of trust in me
    Refer to the bad person
    And recognize me in the old
    From another point of view

    Deepest similar
    I mention our failure
    A chord in our debacle
    I did not think of remorse or guilt
    Because my understanding was not available

    My I have hid the score well
    I may develop slowly if you want
    So i am once again
    Small with my old friend

    14.
    is this the end i ask
    I fly or could have flown
    Relief flowering the quiet
    Scarf of my last breath

    A motorcycle silver lipstick
    Put on silver red lips
    A series of false eyelashes
    None of them would fit

    People bury their wishes
    I am none of them
    A good bird in an earlier life
    In a vicious cycle of birds

    One might drop the needle
    An entire song transcends
    Repeat a twirling hypnotic
    Melody in descending order

    Deep mud can’t see my shoes
    In perfect harmony
    Our arms try touching
    But we do not kiss

    Are you taking part
    I could not be instead
    Are you taking part
    I could not be instead

      Jazziz: Did you find that [writing a book of lyrics] was a challenge? Or was it kind of liberating?
      Halvorson: I guess it was both. It was definitely a challenge. But it was also a lot of fun. The best thing I can I equate it to is when
      you don’t play drums and somebody puts a drumset in front of you. You're just bashing away and having a good time. That’s sort of
      what this felt like, because I didn’t have any hangups, any "should haves." I didn’t study poetry, so it was kind of wide open. It was
      just a new creative outlet. I spent a lot of time revising things, because it was all pretty new. But then setting the words to music was
      also—that’s something I've done a lot and something I really enjoy doing. So that part of it was fun.
      Jazziz: Did the lyrics always come first?
      Halvorson: Always first. I like to fit music around lyrics, so that if the lyrics are irregular, the music might be irregular too. And also
      so that the lyrics can inform the mood of the piece that I'm writing, rather than writing music and then trying to fit some lyrics into it..."

    • Thumbscrew Residency at City of Asylum : : : June 12 through June 26, 2017

    • : : : The story behind the Thumbscrew concert this Wednesday (June 21) : : :

      “In 2008, Pittsburgh jazz saxophonist Ben Opie and Chatham professor Michael Pestel created ‘Braxton Plays Pittsburgh.’
      Mary Halvorson was one of the musicians who played in the opening concert at Manchester Craftsmen’s Guild. A few years
      later, in December 2011, Diane [Samuels] and I stopped at the Cornelia Street Cafe in New York, and we again heard Mary,
      playing as part of the Tom Rainey Trio.

      In this smaller ensemble Mary really caught our attention. We were totally floored. We simply had never heard a sound like
      hers. Being in the audience was like being in the eye of an acoustic hurricane. We made it a point to seek her out whenever
      we were in New York.

      In 2013, inspired by the success of Jazz Poetry Concert, we began to explore the idea of a jazz residency at City of Asylum
      as a complement to COA’s visiting literary residencies. We immediately thought of Mary as the perfect musician to launch
      the residencies. She was one of the most inventive (and busiest) musicians we had heard in years, and we thought ‘time off’
      might be useful.

      So I wrote Mary and invited her to a two-week residency at COA, for ‘creative time to think and invent without commitments
      or even a specific project.’ Over the winter we spoke several times. Mary explained that much of her music was worked out
      in ensemble; and because her collaborators were in many groups and had complicated touring schedules and other
      commitments (and even lived in different cities), this usually meant that new work was often worked out on the road rather
      than in dedicated rehearsals.

      At the time, Mary, Tomas Fujiwara, and Michael Formanek (collectively Thumbscrew) were planning to do another album
      together. Mary told us that the best use of her residency would be to have the entire group in residence, that it would be both
      creatively valuable and a great accelerator of the album. We agreed, and they came in the summer of 2014.

      ‘It was amazing,’ Mary said after the residency. ‘Everyone’s so busy. Even with my own band it can be like pulling teeth
      to get one rehearsal together. For two weeks we played every day and worked on all the new music. It really helped us to
      take the band to the next level.’ Thumbscrew also recorded the album here on the Northside. Released by Cuneiform Records,
      it was rated by AllMusic one of the Best Jazz Albums of 2014, and the Village Voice called it ‘nothing less than magic.’

      City of Asylum differs from our peers around the world and from other U.S. residency programs by making long-term
      commitments to artists. Exiled writers in our sanctuary program may remain in their Sampsonia Way homes rent-free
      as long as needed, until they can become financially independent. Visiting writers are welcome to return to work on new
      projects without a formal application process, when we have housing available. For example, Oliver Lake has been curating
      and participating in Jazz Poetry every year since 2005, and he has developed several other projects with us, like Jazz House,
      ‘What is Home?’, and ‘Stoop is a Verb.’

      So when Thumbscrew asked about returning to create and record a new album, we were thrilled. We think you will be
      also, when they preview their new album in a concert at City of Asylum @ Alphabet City this Wednesday. I hope you

    “Friends took me to Columbia Icefield. When I was there, I just started to get ideas to write new music. By the time I got back, I knew who
    I wanted in the band... The compositions were inspired a lot by the icefield and some of it came from music I had already been working on...
    Making the album was an interesting thing. We hadn’t played any gigs. We rehearsed one day and then recorded the album. There was a lot
    that was written before we went in the studio and that was new for me. Usually, it’s 50 per cent improvisation—or more... Maybe there is
    30 percent of this new music that’s improvised. The strength of the record is that you can’t tell when the improvisation starts or stops.
    It’s very fluid. The music is tension and release over something static.”
    —Nate Wooley, from a Denny Dyroff feature in The Unionville Times Feb 23

    Eric Dawson: How much of the music is composed and how much is improvised, and how much input did the musicians have
    in the composition?
    Nate Wooley: They had a lot of input. I brought a lot of things in and it would get tweaked, that’s just a common experience,
    for me at least, when I’m composing for a group. As far as improvisation, there’s a lot less here than in most of my work. It’s the
    first thing I’ve done in a long time where composition was key, and we fit the moments of improvisation in. I think the concept
    of the pieces made everybody be way more economical in the way they played, and I think there are moments when you can’t tell
    people are improvising unless you’re looking at the score.

      [ingridlaubrock.com/performances.html]
      “Well, here it is: the last jazz gig you’ll ever be able to hear at Cornelia Street Cafë. After New Year’s Day, the 41-year-old
      restaurant and performance space will close, leaving behind a long history of left-of-center artistic presentations—from poetry
      to Off Off Broadway to experimental jazz. Rainey, a drummer with a sensitive touch and a knack for crafty compositions, has
      performed at Cornelia often. His trio with the guitarist Mary Halvorson and the tenor saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock will provide
      a loving send-off.” —The New York Times Dec 28 p.C21

    “‘Playing changes,’ in jazz parlance, has long referred to an improviser’s path through a chord progression. Nate Chinen’s Playing Changes:
    Jazz For the New Century
    boldly expands on this notion, highlighting a host of significant changes—ideological, technological, theoretical,
    and practical—that improvising musicians have learned to navigate and even harness over the last 30 years. Hailed as one of the best books
    of 2018 by NPR, GQ, Billboard, and JazzTimes, it provides a rich framework for this special Big Ears event, in words and music.
    Chinen, a former jazz critic for The New York Times and the director of editorial content at WBGO, will be joined in conversation by three
    artists who embody the dynamic spirit of our age: bassist Larry Grenadier, guitarist Mary Halvorson, and cellist Tomeka Reid. These brilliant
    musicians will also perform throughout the presentation, coalescing as a trio for the first time.
    The results should prove a vibrant illustration of both Playing Changes and the guiding aesthetic of the Big Ears Festival. Chinen mentions
    Big Ears within the first few pages of his book, and he covered the festival last year for NPR Music, pronouncing it ‘a locus of expedition,
    defined more by a go-anywhere ethos than by any style or genre allegiance.’ This event will reflect, and reflect upon, that broadminded ideal.”

    1.
    Smell of grease and mint.
    Glissando female laughter.
    Thirsty one spinning
    tops. Gold outline of her neck,
    crimped at its deepest plastic.

    As cartoon backdrop:
    lemon trees darkening, wish-
    bones bit from life.
    Private crisis of now.
    These indolent visions, parched.
    (for Lawrence Osborne)

    2.
    Your words
    have meaning.
    Blow me up.
    Take me down.
    Reap the whirlwind.
    Last-minute smears:

    Crazy stuff. Gangs.
    Never a hint
    unleashed.
    Reported
    breathlessly

    at the highest levels.
    This is a circus.
    A joke.
    A farce.

    Grotesque.
    The day is coming...
    people will die.

    No ill
    will.

    I have been a good judge.
    (Brett Kavanaugh Congressional Testimony,
    September 27, 2018, found poem
    )

    3.
    You arrive with daggered hands.
    Anonymous spongy fields.
    A headless bull in transit,
    with a pregnant nest of dimes.

    Anonymous spongy fields.
    To the front, walls and roses
    with pregnant nest of dimes.
    Behind you, a shrinking man.

    To the front, walls and roses.
    Wary of the hiccuped copse.
    Behind you, a shrinking man
    subletting a swarm of lives.

    Wary of the hiccuped copse,
    a headless bull in transit.
    Subletting a swarm of lives, you arrive with daggered hands.
    (pantoum)

    4.
    Trace amounts of dynamo smolder offbeat eyes.
    Well-pressed behind proper dress, shoes and wedded hand.
    Muzzling unwashed thoughts not meant to vocalize.

    Floozy legs, stockings caught inside a dropped sunrise.
    Camouflaged by warblers’ wings trilling reprimand.
    Trace amounts of dynamo smolder offbeat eyes.

    Fruitless attempts to salvage all the butterflies.
    Copycat polkadots branding spurious land.
    Muzzling unwashed thoughts not meant to vocalize.

    Lavender grasses flatten as they mime disguise,
    while shepherds’ purses inhale lives that fast expand.
    Trace amounts of dynamo smolder offbeat eyes.

    False decorum wells up and boxes out the skies.
    Filtered smiles posturing for excess on demand.
    Muzzling unwashed thoughts not meant to vocalize.

    Out go the insides, hoping to legitimize
    a monumental moonlight rigged with contraband.
    Trace amounts of dynamo smolder offbeat eyes,
    muzzling unwashed thoughts not meant to vocalize.
    (villanelle)

    5.
    Orange head secretes a lie above you.
    Sentencing the lacquered sky above you.

    Reflected in your stretched out hand in hand,
    trees-to-logs cartwheel and die above you.

    Fluster of sailboats chop half-speed upon
    rose leather ocean, fake dry, above you.

    A coy curtsying earthquake kneels the ground.
    Yo-yo-ing trees liquefy above you.

    Well now it’s your house, set neatly on fire,
    its blistering heart bloats high above you.

    Atrophied crucibles, charred Russian dolls—
    a necklace of flames comply above you.

    Politely uproot the moon-trampled sea.
    A starlit sigh, sewn awry, above you.
    (ghazal)

    6.
    The nostalgia: instant. Across this cracking tiled hill, from
    every angle I’m sprouting weeds. Cobblestones climb the
    slope, cut by narrow alleys slicing open a hundred years.
    Proudly abandoned houses sit tucked and peeling painted,
    bent by their own breeze. New ones drip glossy windows and
    plastic realty signs. At the top, amid tumbled back-country
    sprawl, ropy trees wreath the city view. And there, the rusted
    remains of a netless hoop: echoes of shots, made and missed,
    clocking safe the darkness. The occasional person greets me
    like I’m not

    A blank intruder
    of concealed spots, pretending
    I don’t fall in love.
    (haibun)

    7.
    This morning archives sanity,
    bringing a dimming love.
    Heaves us partway out,
    punishing the plan.

    This evening rules a nearing,
    might be stars on loop.
    Fills us warm and churchlike,
    speakable only to dogs.

    Aspirin swallows our excuses
    while flights take seesaw drops.
    Leisurely forage emboldens.
    Lazy pictures loom sincere.

    When will we recover?
    How long will the burning stink?
    And wash those sharpened knots
    lodged between surrenders.

    Any time, I can stop it.
    My brazen will to try.
    Starkly focused silhouettes
    within half-hearts, a tearing.

    Drop those dresses.
    Reveal unspeakable lines:
    studied calculation
    of discarded open thighs.
    (free verse)

    8.
    Artlessly falling through overstretched arms
    delivers the night underground, a hole.
    I spool splintered smiles around your gray
    eyes, sparklers devouring The Southern Cross.
    Old patterns crystallize, form double salt
    I feign to dissolve. Eighty-eight stars wild.

    Cards leak our future, decidedly wild.
    The Fool: unnumbered, white roses in arms,
    feathers in hair and his heart sieving salt.
    I grip my reveal, an ace in the hole.
    The Hierophant hoisting a triple cross,
    two fingers skyward in homage to gray.

    Pull my hair, dulling from neon to gray,
    totaling childish fancies gone wild.
    Rescind these feint lines drawn too late across
    my odd face. Keep the bubbling ghosts at arm’s
    length. Find a last-ditch way to swallow whole
    the tastings of a life below the salt.

    Trucks blanket Brooklyn with sheets of street salt.
    Shoes secrete outlines of mountainous gray.
    Snowdrops not yielding this winterized whole-
    sale storm. A feasting of wool to breed wild
    sweat, wetting regrettable prints on arms.
    Denial soaps gentle lies on the cross

    we bear. Sweating plastic whiskey, eyes cross.
    Cloudy rim pulsing and happy with salt.
    Dizzy circles blur into two tonearms.
    Medicinal clicks squeeze sleep out of gray
    mourning windows. My clarity blows wild
    reasons, ever-forming, down that black hole.

    You wouldn’t call it that, but it’s a hole—
    smothering lackluster limits we cross.
    The prognosis clings to my mouth: a wild
    hurling of bottleneck wounds rubbed with salt.
    The chill of your love (love fading to gray)
    unfolds as a serpentine race of arms.

    A hole-in-one warns me: not worth his salt.
    Crosscut that arctic orbit as a gray
    whale: wild, breaching. To hell with your wrong arms.
    (sestina)

    “While Triple Double comprises six revered improvisers, the focus of March—and of much of the work that each of them creates—
    was squarely on Fujiwara’s “complex, yet ... very accessible” (All About Jazz) compositions. But the late 2019 recording session
    for the album at New Haven’s Firehouse 12 also included a riveting piece of free improvisation. One year after the album’s initial
    release, Fujiwara will present a download-only follow-up, March On, centered on that 32-minute piece and including several short
    duo improvisations excerpted from alternate takes of the compositions from March.”
