How Deep Are Rivers?
by: Lee Ranaldo
The piece is a meditation upon the untimely, early death of Epic Soundtracks, a close friend. As such it is a sustained and concentrated piece, which demands a certain amount of ‘furious dedication’ on the part of the players to erecting certain tonal and textural elements, expanding upon the harmonic range of the tape track. Sustained playing, small variations, dense tonal clusters, gongs, bells, metal clang, prepared piano, suggested dominant and 'other' notes, additional notes, movement toward clusters (specified or other), stopwatches, volume. Epic. E Mort.
