From 2000-2002 I followed my interest in 1960s composition more seriously. I lived in a town with a music program at the university & I would regularly drop in to classes while I wasn't even a student at the school. It was a more relaxed time. I would go to the basement library of the music building & listen to out of print Ligeti & Copland records. The highest culmination of it all was spending a morning with George Crumb as he critiqued a handful of graduate students pieces. I would go to the rundown theater named after a racist former governor & listen to the student orchestra tune & play. I recorded some of the warm ups on a cassette recorder & transferred them to my computer where they sat for over 20 years. I found them on a hard drive recently & they were the perfect source for the kind of sounds Small Life Form makes today. A collaboration with a younger version of myself & a hundred strangers on a stage. Drone on!
