The dance creates the music as often as otherwise,
By Stargrazer "the lost mixtape of my life" (deep in the heart of Michigan) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Tattoo (Pat Graney Dance Company, Soundtrack Series No. 1) (Audio CD)
Multi-talented avant-garde composer Amy Denio quilts together a dizzying array of sampled sounds: bird calls, construction sites, water slapping, accordion, spoken words, dancers' footsteps and other found sound for this suite created for the Pat Graney Dance Company of New York in 2000. "Tattoo" is the third and final movement in a series of performances that include "Faith" (1991) and "Sleep" (1995).
The lines between performer, performance, and accompaniment are blurred and sometimes completely discarded -- "Skirts," for example, samples and layers the swishing of the dancers' skirts as they move through their steps. "Tattoo" is an excellent example of the limitless canvas of music. Instead of painting herself into a corner with conventionality, Denio sculpts and collages the commonplace into intriguing new sounds. |
