JACQUES LASRY
Structures Sonores Lasry - Baschet : the hypnotic music of sculptures that sound LP
- Label :Columbia Music of our time / Usa
- Condition :vg++/ex(cover/vinyl)
"Rare late 1960s lp with Indian-influenced psych-drone pieces performed by composer Jacques Lasry on the legendary Structures Sonores (sound sculptures built out of metal, glass, and plastic by Bernard and Francois Baschet). He is joined by son Teddy Lasry on flute and bass violin, Jean Guerin on tabla, and Aude Cornillac on occasionally surfacing wordless vocals. "The structures... employ such energizing agents as glass rods that vibrate when stroked by moistened fingers; amplifying devices, such as plastic balloons filled with air or metal cones or foils; and vibrating rods that are struck by hard or soft mallets." The resulting raw tones and resonances extracted from these unique instruments are fascinating.
The Baschet Structures Sonores have been used in compositions by Andres Lewin-Richter, Ravi Shankar, Toru Takemitsu, and Jacques, Yvonne, and Teddy Lasry; they compare to the sound sculpture and homemade instrument work of Max Neuhaus, Harry Partch, Z'ev, Donald Knaack, Harry Bertoia, Alvin Lucier, Paul Panhuysen, Bill Fontana, etc. Jacques Lasry also released an lp on the legendary Patchwork French library label. Teddy Lasry was a member of French prog group Magma."(courtesy of keymap records) Very rare, get this now!!
