The Vinyl Six
for mixed chamber ensemble
The Vinyl Six is, on the surface, a straightforward mixed chamber work. Preconceptions start to fall apart, however, with the instrumentation—a sort of Pierrot-ensemble gone Bad ... as if Clarence Clemens and Slash jumped onstage at the Chamber Music Society. TV6 also looks suspiciously like a theme and variations (a tried-and-true chamber music form). Only this one shows off a blues cadence through a variety of slow funk, fusion, folk-rock, hair-band, and pop grooves. Think of your old record collection and raise your lighters for The Vinyl Six...
