Thanks Android.

Also some good theory and writings in web searching, I must peruse some writings. amazing world we live in that we can find such beauty and imagination at the touch of a finger, where as back in the day, how would anyone ever know about this guy or anyone else with a passion for artistic expression.

Discovery is part of the journey.

..." how would anyone ever know about this guy or anyone else with a passion for artistic expression (?)"... Simply by listening to Frank Zappa 8-).

Hey Rey, thanks for posting the Edgard Varese. I love this Stuff too and you probably know
that Frank was 'heavily' influenced by him. I have posted for your enjoyment an orchestral
arrangement of Franks "Dog Breathe Variations" :|. The second video is the same song in it's original form, from the album "Uncle Meat". Maybe I like it better, but it's certainly interesting to
to 'view' the two compositions together, for technical reasons of course. :geek:

Frank Zappa turned me on to "The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbeque". When I heard that song I said "I hafta find out who THIS guy is".

Ahhhh...The Yellow Shark. Splendid

Great place to start for Frank's music for larger ensembles. In addition to The Yellow Shark, the Ensemble Modern has another Frank Zappa release (Ensemble Modern Plays Frank Zappa: Greggery Peccary & Other Persuasions)...and therein lies the path to more discovery...

F.Z. turned me on to SO much music (along w/ Varese & Dolphy, The Don Ellis Orchestra) and pissed off the majority of my professors@ Berklee College of Music. ('78) My high school band director was hipper than those cats. And nobody noticed I had miss-spelled Edgard in my bottom quote for a LONG time...Frank helped promote, and MC'd, an evening of Varese's music on April 17, '81 at the Palladium NYC to 3000 people (mostly Frank's fans). It was fun although there were alot of FZ fans wishing they would hear "Dynmo Hum" (there is a NYPR recording of the concert I'm gonna listen to it. The tapes were found in Jersey. wnyc.org/story/musical-tribute-edgar-varese-april-17-1981. Notice the alternate spelling of "Edgar" which I have just found out is acceptical)

This reminds me of the music that I create on my Roli Seaboard Rise 49.

Varèse was relatively well-known. His piece Poème électronique was part of the Phillips pavillion designed by Le corbusier and had several million people visiting it. Pieces like Octandre, Désert and Amérique are pretty much classics of modernist classical music that are studied if you go to university in classical music. For the non-classical person though, he's definitely mostly known through Zappa. That said, as much as I love Zappa, he really wasn't that good of a composer in that sense. It's understandable that he was the butt of jokes by the likes of Boulez in the 80's.
