Pan-Acousticon

Pan-Acousticon (1999) more music like this

by Zeena Parkins

An elaborate work from the New York composer, improviser, and harpist, Pan-Acousticon is the result of more than three years of work in refining the fusion of her multi-disciplinary work. Mixing electronics and sampling with more classical orchestration -- even touching on avant rock and jazz -- the mastery of Zeena Parkins is in her seamless ...

Nightmare Alley (1992) more music like this

by Zeena Parkins

The leading New York avant jazz harpist has appeared on hundreds of free improvisation recordings in collaboration with artists such as Fred Frith, John Zorn, Elliott Sharp, Lee Ranaldo, and Ikue Mori, among many others.

Mouth=Maul=Betrayer

Mouth=Maul=Betrayer (1996) more music like this

by Zeena Parkins

Part of the Radical Jewish Culture series put out by John Zorn's Tzadik label, Zeena Parkins' Mouth Equals Maul Equals Betrayer perhaps more than any other album lives up to the name of the series. This work is aggressive, energetic, intellectually complex, challenging, and highly structured. At times it reads like the soundtrack to a classic ...

Great Jewish Music: Burt Bacharach

Great Jewish Music: Burt Bacharach (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

This two-CD set, produced by John Zorn, is second in a series of compilation albums dedicated to Jewish composers. The formidable and oft-forgotten -- ignored, perhaps -- Burt Bacharach is the focus of this album. Zorn calls upon some excellent musicians for this effort, including Medeski, Martin & Wood, Joey Baron, Bill Frisell, and a host of ...

A Field Guide to Table of the Elements: Southeastern Edition

A Field Guide to Table of the Elements: Southeastern Edition (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

Table of the Elements started in 1993 as a clearinghouse for rare recordings of American experimental music that were not getting out in any other way, including brittle audiotaped documents of the birth of minimalism; no wave-era New York composers whose music was not accepted at the academies; composers whose works blurred the boundaries between ...

State of the Union [Atavistic]

State of the Union [Atavistic] (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Produced by composer-performer Elliott Sharp, this is an incredible two-CD collection of one-minute pieces by 146 artists (poets, musicians, writers, visual artists) with proceeds from the sale going to benefit the National Coalition Against Censorship. This has been an on-going project since a similar release in 1982 on zOaR records. "Changing ...

Psycho-Acoustic

Psycho-Acoustic (1995) more music like this

by Elliott Sharp/Zeena Parkins

Downtown guitar and sax legend Elliott Sharp teamed up with avant-garde harpist Zeena Parkins for this wild set of duo improvisations. The results are not for the fainthearted, but will reward those willing to withstand the onslaught of heavily altered and severely distorted string sounds. Sharp spends most of his time playing a double-necked ...

Necklace

Necklace (2006) more music like this

by Zeena Parkins

It's been awhile since Zeena Parkins released a recording on Tzadik. Her last for the label, Pan-Acousticon was issued in 1999, and it was here she set out to explore relationships between orchestral instruments (sampled), strings, drums, and homemade instruments. She appeared in collaboration with Lesli Dalaba on her fantastic Tzadik issue ...

Hallelujah, Anyway - Remembering Tom Cora

Hallelujah, Anyway - Remembering Tom Cora (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Hallelujah Anyway is an important retrospective of underrecognized and versatile cellist Tom Cora. A worthy eulogy, released one year after his death, this double-disc set includes songs written in his memory, songs that he composed for others, and a great cross-section of the myriad projects and musical contexts that Cora embraced. And that means ...

Letters Home (1986) more music like this

by News from Babel

A much more playful and energetic outing from the Cutler/Cooper connection, and it might have something to do with guest singer Robert Wyatt. Only Wyatt could sing Cutler's staunch, impressionistic lyrics and wring out some emotion. And as if in response, the music jumps and plays, taking in Eastern polka-isms, and up-tempo folk dance rhythms. ...
