Glad to have you back as long as we can keep you, Doc. I saw Uri Caine during one of Zorn's all-star fundraiser shows at the Stone, where the artists improvise together in different on-the-spot combinations.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:58pm

(Wonder if I can find the Caine/Mahler...). He had a great album of music from the turn from 19th to 20th Century, and also tHe Goldberg Variations.
  10:59pm
Dean:

Saw Caine at the Skirball Center in LA with Don Byron and others around that time, doctorjazz.

I am just about 0% spiritual, but something about the liturgy grabs me.

Caine's GV missed the mark, I thought.

I've spent the past couple of years diving into Shostakovich's 48 and his string quartets. Bountiful rewards.

Saw the original Masada many times at the old Knitting Factory. Still think that band was one of the best live experiences I've had...

I never saw Masada live, but I have to agree 100% with you, doctorjazz. The very definition of ensemble.

Yeah, that "Kabbalah" part before this one had some Klezmer sounding parts to it, but then I played this "Dream" section because I also wanted something that had the slightly surreal eeriness that I imagine could be part of a story about a Dybbuk.

leonardbernstein.com...

“In Jewish folklore, a dybbuk is a wandering soul which enters into a living person and talks through his mouth, presenting a separate and alien personality. The story of Ansky's play is about two young lovers secretly pledged to each other before birth by the oath of their fathers. The pledge is broken by the girl's father, who betroths her to another, so the boy, in despair, dabbles in black arts. To his misfortune, he is successful and becomes a dybbuk which enters the body of his beloved.“

"Traditionally, dybbuks tended to be male spirits who possessed women on the eve of their weddings typically in a sexual fashion by entering the women through their vaginas which is seen in Ansky's play."

@Dean...here's a quote from Bernstein on Bruckner: "'Look, there are no real orgasms in Bruckner's music,' Bernstein said. 'He doesn't reach a climax. He's always gonna be, but it never happens. He takes so long to make his points. He's very loquacious. No matter what you say about Mahler, he made his points'." www.abruckner.com...

@zzz: tbf, the girl in question sort of sought it out for gigs (she was a vj/video artist). But unlike other gigs (akron/family[i introduced her to the AF lads], and a place to bury strangers, who were super cool) logic just came across as skeevy. I still dig him as a musician.

Besides, there are many ways other than orgasm to "climax" or "go beyond" the physical phenomenon or its literary/musical figure. Imagine the intensity as one approaches, however long it takes, "no real orgasm." Asymptotes turn me on.
