Fri. 12/12/08 12:44pm From: Bad Ronald

Tata Annie, pick a winner!

Fri. 12/12/08 12:56pm From: dc pat

just reading about this piece: the theremin sounding thing is a ondes Martenot. If I lived a couple of hundred miles closer to carnegie hall, I'd go.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:03pm From: bryce

yeah, that's right! in fact, the ondes martenot's basically a theremin without antennae — they both generate sound by heterodyning two sine waves. early ones came with a loudspeaker that had sympathetic strings stretched over the opening. totally great.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:05pm From: Larry

Bryce, can you tell me more about the heterodyne? Keep doing a good show.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:06pm From: Doug in DC

I've got this cool ondes martinot compiliation that has a composition by Lindsay Cooper, from Henry Cow: http://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.asp?item_code=8.555779

Fri. 12/12/08 1:12pm From: Mark

RE: the Turangalîla-Symphonie and the ondes martenot, here is related video clip that may be of interest: http://tinyurl.com/6nfkjs . Wonderful selections Bryce. Thank you.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:13pm From: bryce

haha, i've been emailing that clip to friends to get them stoked about this sunday!

Fri. 12/12/08 1:16pm From: dc pat

ok, stop playing music so I can check out the video...

Fri. 12/12/08 1:23pm From: dc pat

ok Bryce, if I were to buy this, which version should I get?

Fri. 12/12/08 1:24pm From: bryce

YOU'RE GETTING AN ONDES MARTENOT??

can i come over?

Fri. 12/12/08 1:27pm From: bryce

on cd, i've only heard one by the royal concertgebouw orchestra & this one (the berliner philharmoniker). both sound great to me, tho...

Fri. 12/12/08 1:27pm From: dc pat

ha, if only... no the Turangalila-Symph.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:28pm From: dc pat

thanks.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:29pm From: north guinea hills

i might actually try to go to the carnegie performance.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:33pm From: bryce

imagine hearing this coming out of a ton of physical objects instead of a couple of paper cones.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:37pm From: dc pat

HEY, I'm going to see the Nutcracker performed tomorrow!!.... yeah, I know... my daughter is in the production... I wish she was performing this instead.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:38pm From: bryce

dude, get her an ondes martenot! SHE'LL LOVE YOU!

and i can come over.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:48pm From: dc pat

kind of low on the list right now. #1 is a drum set (mine got lost somewhere), then a Rickenbacker 360 v64 12, then a Dobro, and THEN the ondes martenot.

Fri. 12/12/08 1:54pm From: Bad Ronald

How in the hell do you lose a drum kit?

Fri. 12/12/08 1:56pm From: dc pat

you let your friend borrow it because he's letting you use his practice space, then he lends it to some one else, then original guy moves out of town. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I think my brother in law has it!!

Fri. 12/12/08 1:57pm From: C

THIS IS AWESOME. it's really by the same guy that did the last song?

Fri. 12/12/08 1:58pm From: bryce

yussir!

Fri. 12/12/08 1:58pm From: Bad Ronald

OK, gotcha. I've got some gear floating around that I should keep track of too. I was gonna say that must've been one hell of a gig!

Fri. 12/12/08 2:05pm From: dc pat

Ha! Just checked w/ bro in law--original guy still has them and he's coming back to town for Xmas...I'll lay in wait for him....

Fri. 12/12/08 2:12pm From: OJ Simpson

When it's time to step up and get your own goods back, I'm the guy you want to roll with -- I can help. Let me see when I'm....free.

Fri. 12/12/08 2:15pm From: bryce

oj, i seem to have misplaced my enriched plutonium.
if you have time.

Fri. 12/12/08 2:16pm From: C

Bryce, what was the name of the Asian sounding song (was it the 3rd movement of l'ascension?) Alléluia sur la tropmette, Alleluia sur la cymbale?

Fri. 12/12/08 2:18pm From: bryce

one of the two organ things?

Fri. 12/12/08 2:21pm From: C

Oh no! I just rewound and couldn't find it. It must have been music coming from a Thai website I have on in the background. Really sorry about that.

Fri. 12/12/08 2:22pm From: bryce

DAMN THAILAND!!!!!!

Fri. 12/12/08 2:24pm From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Fri. 12/12/08 2:30pm From: dc pat

bryce, you should do a show with a Stravinsky theme. His birthday is in June but...next week would be fine.

Fri. 12/12/08 2:42pm From: Bill O'Reilly

Oh, that's the important birthday that should get recognized in this period? So important that it should be granted an intrusive calendar relocation, Mr. Deny Christmas Pat?

Fri. 12/12/08 2:44pm From: Parq

C, that website could be used to stream a documentary or similar exploration of local B&D activties. The participants would be known as the Thais that bind. Okay, I'll get back to work now.

Fri. 12/12/08 2:45pm From: stingy d

i win! i win the whole game!

Fri. 12/12/08 2:48pm From: Bad Ronald

There's a restaurant in my neighborhood called "Thai Me Up".

Fri. 12/12/08 2:50pm From: cosmic

Fri. 12/12/08 2:51pm From: Bad Ronald
