Excellent quality radio recording.
I think this would make a pretty good introduction to late and later period AMM for anyone interested.

AMM

 

Two concerts from AMM, at once similar and contrasting.


The first is an FM recording from WDR of a 1994 concert in Bielefeld, from a series entitled "Mobil - Offene Form mit Variations", and features the cellist from the Arditti String Quartet;


16th May, 1994
Ravensberger Spinnerei, Bielefeld, Germany


Eddie Prevost - drums & percussion

John Tilbury - piano, announcements
Keith Rowe - electric guitar
Rohan de Saram - cello


The music includes;


Cornelius Cardew - Solo with Accompaniment for 2 instruments ad libitum
Christian Wolff - for 1, 2 or 3 people, any sound producing means
John Cage - Variations III for arbitrary number of players and arbitrary sound originators
Howard Skempton - for strings (waves, shingle, seagulls)
Cornelius Cardew - February pieces for piano (#2)
AMM - improvisation for piano, guitar, violoncello and drums


A very good quality recording - thank you very much, Owombat, for making this available.


The second concert is AMM as a duo, from earlier this year, and was a concert recorded at Aula Magna dell'Università La Sapienza di Roma on 11th March, 2008 (and broadcast on RAI3 on 6th September). The music is similar, but the interpretation has moved on.


John Tilbury - piano 

Eddie Prevost - percussion
