Keith Rowe

the sound from the bar next door was actually very prominent for most of the set

were you closer to the door? I didn't hear anything for most of the set, a bit at the start and of course at the end.

ending on Al Green's Lets Stay Together (i think) .

really? I've heard that song multiple times in the last week and didn't attach it to the music, but again, maybe it was a lot clearer on the side closer to the door.

seconding Cor's well wishes at the bottom of the last page, happy birthday, Mr. Rowe (maestro)!

Dear Keith,

i was the guy sitting directly to your right actually. i only heard the sound in a few places, but i could feel the beats quite distinctly for the majority of the time. as for Al Green, i was never able to confirm due to the applause, but the rhythm sounded identical to me (thought i heard hints of the melody as well, but i suppose i could have been projecting).

ha! I thought that might be the case after I posted, now I can put your name together with your IHM persona.

yes, same here! i don't usually look so much like a drowned rat though, that walk from the train station was grueling.

also, for those who didn't know. it looks like Keith will be playing solo tomorrow as well as performing Edges with Christian Wolff (for free!).

Robert hatta is going to everything this week, presumably he'll write it up on his blog at some point.

great...particularly keen to hear about "Rowe plays Wolff." Has Keith done this sort of thing in the (recent) past? looks to be a great matchup, from where I'm sitting.

Any chance it will sell out? Are advance tickets available?

[jon abbey]

yeah, I think there's a good chance it'll sell out and maybe we'll even have to turn people away. if people are definitely coming to one or both shows, PM me or e-mail me and I'll reserve a place for you, you can pay this weekend (I'd prefer to not give PayPal a cut if possible). please don't make a reservation if you're not positive that you're coming, I'll post again here if we get close to capacity.

Good read. I wish I was able to sit in on the Oberlin workshop, instead of having to ask questions while he was in the middle of packing things up at Fairchild.

yes. and this:

He told them not to listen to each other. “Don’t listen,” he said. “Consider the experience of the room. Play the moment in the room and make the exact sound that needs to be played in this room at that moment”
