Description: PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN
Fast ein Vierteljahrhundert lang war die Musik des sogenannten „Schwarzen Minimalisten“ Julius Eastman (1940-1990) in Vergessenheit geraten und erlebt gegenwärtig eine erstaunliche Renaissance. Nun haben neue Versionen von Eastmans berühmtestem Werk mit dem provokanten Titel Evil Nigger ihren Weg auch auf Vinyl gefunden. Seine Klangkaskade, sonst von vier Flügeln erzeugt, wird hier vom renommierten Arditti String Quartet (arrangiert von Tomasz Opałka) und von den zwei polnischen Akkordeonmeistern Rafal Luc und Maciej Frackiewicz (arrangiert von Piotr Peszat) gespielt.

“Minimalism has been dominated by straight white men ― Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass ― and Eastman, a gay black man is a vital addition to their company, even if his take on the style was idiosyncratic and perhaps ahead of its time” wrote the New York Times in 2016. Another leftist fad indulged in by New York snobs? Don’t think so. Since that was written, Julius Eastman’s musical output, all-but forgotten for a quarter century, has been the focus at the London Contemporary Music Festival, MaerzMusik in Berlin and Krakow’s Sacrum Profanum festival, and has been all over the press. Now, new versions of Eastman’s most famous work (with the revealing title Evil Nigger) have now made their way onto the vinyl album. Its cascade of sounds, usually produced by four grand pianos, has been rendered this time by the renowned Arditti String Quartet (arranged by Tomasz Opałka) and by two Polish accordion masters, Rafał Łuc and Maciej Frąckiewicz (arranged by Piotr Peszat). Today, Eastman’s timely music resounds as powerfully as the scary/funny titles of his most acclaimed compositions (including the provocative, now lost Nigger Faggot).
