(What else, you ask. It's been a week of shows, networking and so on.) Piece by Marisa Zanotti, who is now (if my network informs me correctly) is freelancing as choreographer across in Glasgow. And who has a tape from me... Sunken ballrooms, screen heroines, etc. And the music: moving fragments of operatic works and symphonies, distance echoes and loops of evocative, ghostly sounds. All done live. Really, really effective. One of the best contemporary dance soundtracks I've heard in a long while. I had a chat with the composer/performer afterwards to ask what he was using to make the music. Answer: two cheap record decks, two cheap cassette decks, a toy Casio sampler, a stomp-box delay and a couple of cheap mixers. Well, that cuts me down to size. Nick. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 3 Nov 1992 09:46:33 -0500 From: "(Joseph D.
