Editorial Reviews
Composer/multi-instrumentalist/producer Elliott Sharp leads the groups Orchestra Carbon, Tectonics, and Terraplane. His compositions have been performed by the Symphony of the Hessischer Rundfunk, the Ensemble Modern, Continuum, the Orchestra of the SEM Ensemble, Kronos Quartet, Zeitkratzer, the Soldier String Quartet, Meridian String Quartet, and the Quintet of the Americas. His collaborators have included qawaali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, cello innovator Frances-Marie Uitti, sci-fi writers Jack Womack and Lucius Shepard; blues legend Hubert Sumlin; turntablists DJ Soulslinger and Christian Marclay; and Bachir Attar, leader of the Master Musicians of Jahjouka.
Sharp composed music and sound design for computer artist Perry Hoberman's virtual 3d installation Timetable which won the Grand Prize at the 1999 NTT ICC Bienalle in Tokyo.
He formed zOaR Records in 1978 to release his own and other extreme musics and produced the critically-acclaimed compilations State of the Union and Peripheral Vision.
Sharp's latest CD releases include SyndaKit with Orchestra Carbon on zOaR, Terraplane:Blues For Next, and Tectonics:Errata as well as the latest State of the Union 2.001 on the Electronic Music Foundation label.
His interactive string/computer installation, Chromatine, was just premiered at the gallery of the School of the Boston Museum Of Fine Arts.
Product Description
"Commune" is a new documentary on the Black Bear Ranch by the maker of the acclaimed films "The Shvitz" and "My Friend Paul." Black Bear was an experiment in hippie/yippie/politico/sex/drugs/cult communal living in Northern California from the mid-60's to the mid-70's and the film examines the roots, the theory, the practice, the downfall, and the present. From 1968 to 1972, in addition to his blues, improvisation, and solo guitar experiments, E# played in such psychedelic bands as Colonel Bleep, St. Elmo's Fire, and Death & Taxes. Joined by Sim Cain on drums, he revisits these days in his score to "Commune" with raging and sweeping electric guitars; Fahey-esq 12-string ragas; rootsy songs reminiscent of The Band, Byrds, and Dead; poignant National Steel solos; and the bubblegum hit "Mountains Laughin'" sung by Michelle Casillas.
