Common to all of my music is the use of expanded sonic palettes. My goal has been to create a body of work using a novel but natural, versatile, and expressive musical language. My focus on extended musical palettes mirrors the belief that individuals and societies are improved through broad inclusion. Much of my musical vocabulary consists of familiar bits of words, songs, and instrumental music which are deconstructed into minute fragments, subjected to a variety of electronic processes, and finally reassembled in ways that bear little or no discernible relationship to their original sources. The result is a sound at once nearly human and tangentially electronic, but never fully one or the other. Allusions to Middle Eastern, Asian, and Western sacred, secular, popular, and classical instrumental and vocal music seek to produce hypothetical performers of indeterminate identity--simultaneously male and female, Western and non-Western, ancient and modern, familiar and unfamiliar." ~ Noah Creshevsky Profile: Noah Creshevsky (January 31, 1945 in Rochester, New York) is a composer who studied composition with Nadia Boulanger in Conservatoire de musique in Paris and with Luciano Berio at Juilliard school of music in New-York. Noah Creshevsky is the former director of the Center for computer music and now Professor Emeritus at Brooklyn College of the City of New York. ---- Noah Creshevsky's albums for the Tzadik label are probably enjoying a higher profile than the rest of his output. Luckily, they happen to be his best ones, in terms of ideas, pace, and listenability. The Twilight of the Gods features eight works of what the composer calls "hyperrealist music" -- music made from sounds found in the real world, reorganized into sequences that are humanly impossible to perform. It usually results in extremely active and intense music. However, this particular album sounds less hyperactive and is easier to listen to, which doesn't lessen its impact or its sheer power of wonder. The Twilight of the Gods is bookended by "band songs," for lack of a better phrase: "Götterdämmerung" features the klezmer music group the Klez Dispensers, while "Happy Ending" features a jazz quartet, Ray Marchica & Sons of Sound. Both bands have agreed to be extensively sampled by Creshevsky, who has then composed impossibly busy tracks while retaining some of the identity of the performers. One thinks of John Oswald's plunderphonics and Bob Ostertag's stunning sample workout Say No More. Between these two songs are six more works. "Omaggio" and "Estancia" use unidentified samples from the classical world (an orchestra in the first, a Spanish classical guitar in the second) and manage to blur the line between human performance and machine performance, although, on that front, "I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now" achieves even better results, its blending of orchestral and vocal sources producing a gripping 11-minute oratorio. Baritone singer Thomas Buckner provided samples for the short "Brother Tom," while Ellen Band did the same for "La Belle Dame Sans Merci," a surprisingly sedate though efficient work -- and a welcome breather before the manic "Happy Ending" kicks in. The Twilight of the Gods will never be an easy listen, but Creshevsky's mastery of the sample, and his ability to see far and wide in his compositional architectures, are simply fascinating. And the fact that he does not alter his samples, using them simply as building blocks, makes it all the more impressive. ~ François Couture ---- WIKI - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah_Creshevsky     Tzadik Active in electronic composition since 1971, Creshevsky delights in presenting extreme and unpredictable juxtapositions in which the integration of electronic and acoustic sources and processes creates virtual "superperformers" by using the sounds of traditional instruments pushed past human capacities. Creshevsky uses the term Hyperrealism to describe his electroacoustic language constructed from found sounds, handled in ways that are exaggerated or intense. The second Tzadik CD by this modern magus of electronica presents a fabulous and diverse program sampling voice, orchestra, electronics, pop music and more.     Credits Dana Bryan - Portrait Photography Heung-Heung - Chin Design Tom Hamilton - Mixing Scott Hull - Mastering Michael Pride - Portrait Photography Kazunori Sugiyama - Associate Producer John Zorn - Executive Producer     Back
