about

Jamie Saft Plays John Cage + Jerry Granelli

Music, Traditions + Codified Gestures.

What is the difference between improvised + composed music to the listener?

Why Cage + Granelli?
Mr. Saft answers -
In my mind it's the same approach -
painting with sound.
Notes and rhythms all have equal importance.
Tone color too.
Neither judges sounds -
every aspect is given equal consideration.
The Jerry Granelli compositions here are premieres.
This is not a record of avant-garde music.

After a precision liftoff in Tabasco and setting a course to travel the space ways from planet to planet, the album peels away through a wormhole just past Saturn in the eponymous track Mayan Space Station to journey through time and space in Canyons of Light. eric F

Eclecticism with vision and swag. This is what Americana could sound like if it wasn't bound by so many rules. Echoes of blues, movie soundtracks and Appalachian mountains. And Čapek... pure joy. jiristepan
