107 PHRASES about Studio Dan´s extended album Braxton et al.

The magnifique Studio Dan asked me to write linear notes for their album dedicated to the music of my beloved teacher Anthony Braxton. among them his composition 107. I ended up with 107 partly poetic phrases, each referring to the pieces of the album. At their concert I will read and recite this text in collaboration with improvising instrumentalists of the ensemble.

WALDSEE 1944

Waldsee is a fictive vilage, never existed, only as location of registration, and mentioned as a safe and pieceful place on those postcards. These postcards were in real life sent out from Auswitz-Birkenau by the prisoners on command. 80 years later gallery 2B in Budapest asked artists, writers and composers, to create reflective works to the original exhibited postcards. They recorded Lapok, among others pieces, and it can be listened through a headphone as part of the exhibition.
