Erst vergessen, heute ein Hype: Julius Eastman (1940–1990)

Er starb vereinsamt und verarmt in einem Krankenhaus in Buffalo und hinterliess ein vielgestaltiges Werk. Die Black Lives Matter-Bewegung entdeckte Eastman für sich. Inzwischen ist seine ungezähmte Musik im Konzertsaal angekommen. Julius Eastman wollte nicht mehr als sich selbst sein. «In vollen Zügen schwarz, in vollen Zügen Musiker, in vollen Zügen Homosexueller». Damit platzte er in die Blase der weissen Avantgarde New Yorks und brach mit seinen sexuell aufgeladenen Performances als Sänger, Tänzer und Komponist Tabus. Exemplarisch dafür ist der Bruch mit John Cage auf dem Campus in Buffalo. Zwischen den Stücken aus Cages «Song Book» improvisierte Eastman 1975 eine Satire über ein «neues System der Liebe», während er das «Beste aus beiden Welten» (die schwarze «Miss Suzyanna» aus Haiti und den «blonden Charles» aus Buffalo) hiess, sich auf der Bühne zu entkleiden. Am Ende war nur Charles nackt und Eastman liess die Hose herunter. Die Performance über umgekehrten Rassismus und homosexuelle Hemmungslosigkeit provozierte. Cage, der Homosexualität als Privatsache betrachtete, soll auf die Bühne gestürmt sein und Eastman zur Rede gestellt haben. Anderntags beschwerte er sich beim Institutsleiter. Eastmans Musik trägt Titel wie «Gay Guerilla» und «Evil Nigger» und repräsentiert ein Selbstverständnis, das schon zu Lebzeiten Widerstand innerhalb der Community provozierte. Die afroamerikanische Studentenorganisation der Northwestern University in Evanston (Illinois) etwa setzte 1980 die Streichung des N. Worts auf dem Programmzettel durch, worauf Eastman vor dem Konzert eine Gegenrede hielt. «Die USA hätte ohne die Feld-Niggers niemals die ökonomische Kraft aufbauen können, über die sie heute verfügt.» Das beleidigende Wort verwende er, um die Rolle der Afroamerikaner in der amerikanischen Geschichte zu ehren. Die Pianistin Simone Keller gehört zu den ersten, die sich im Bund mit dem Kukuruz Quartet Eastmans Klaviermusik gewidmet hat. 2018 hat das Quartett eine Referenzaufnahme vorgelegt. Ihr folgt 2024 eine Solo-CD, die Simone Keller vergessener Musik etwa von Olga Diener, Julia Amanda Perry und Julius Eastman widmet. Er schrieb nicht nur wütende Minimalmusic, er rang sich auch intellektuell fundierte Stücke wie etwa «Piano 2» ab. Simone Keller blickt im Gespräch mit Corinne Holtz auf den Werdegang des Aussenseiters, an dem die Sakralisierung zum Klassiker zu beobachten ist. Ausserdem spricht die Pianistin über die Herausforderung, als weisse Frau Eastmans Musik und der kontrovers diskutierten Intersektionalität gerecht zu werden.

In this podcast, we'll explore the life of John Cage and how he revolutionized and challenged modern ideas about what it means to be an artist or a musician. With the debut of his groundbreaking piece 4'33”, Cage sparked a new way of thinking—where musicians and their presence could be seen not just as creators of sound, but as works of art themselves. This raises a provocative question: is a performance defined by its composition, or can it be considered art even in silence?

Eine männliche Sphinx? Ein Schnorrer und Alkoholiker? Erik Satie (1866–1925) hat viele Gesichter. Oliver Vogel vermisst den Avantgardisten neu. Gymnopédie Nr.1 (1888) ist zur Tapetenmusik verkommen. Das berühmteste Stück Saties wurde dutzendfach gecovert, findet sich auf Volume 3 von «KuschelKlassik» und spielt auch im Autorenkino des 21. Jahrhunderts noch immer eine Rolle. Allerdings blieb Satie nicht im Wohlklang stecken. Er schreckte mit einem Stücktitel wie «Embryons Desséchés» und schrieb «Véritables Préludes Flasques (pour un chien)». Dabei habe er sich einzig den sanften Freuden der Phantasie hingegeben, heisst es in seinem Werkkommentar. «Wer mich nicht versteht, wird inständig gebeten, vollkommenes Stillschweigen zu bewahren und eine Haltung gänzlicher Unterwürfigkeit und Unterlegenheit einzunehmen.» Satie fährt kompositorisch Achterbahn und entzieht sich der Einordnung in den Kanon der so genannt klassischen Musik. In «Vexations» (1892–1895), gründend auf einer Bassmelodie aus 11 Tönen, kratzt er an der Grenze der Tonalität. Mit «La Diva de L'Empire» (1906) bedient der das Publikum in der Music Hall, «Parade»(1917) im Schlepptau von Jean Cocteau und Pablo Picasso macht ihn international bekannt, in «Socrate» (1918) bekennt er sich zur ernsten Musik. John Cage betrieb ab 1945 die Wiederentdeckung von Saties Musik. Ornella Volta prägte über Jahrzehnte die Satie-Forschung in Frankreich, während Grete Wehmeyer 1974 das erste deutschsprachige Standardwerk veröffentlichte. Jetzt zieht Oliver Vogel nach, Musikwissenschaftler in Berlin. Seine Monografie «Erik Satie. Der skeptische Klassiker» ist bei Bärenreiter/Metzler erschienen und setzt neue Akzente. Oliver Vogel stellt sich im Gespräch mit Corinne Holtz dem Bollwerk von Witz. Er ergründet das Mysterium Satie, ohne ihm zu verfallen.

Episode 177 Chapter 36, Modern Turntablism. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music  Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast.

The naked record will naturally become increasingly damaged from shipping, storing, and playing the record, all becoming part of the work. In essence, the owner is implored to progressively destroy the release, allowing it to become scratched and bruised from accumulating damage that make each copy unique. My copy actually skips a lot. In the passage I am playing I often had to press the needle down a little bit to get through a skip.

Jonathon Keats: Experimental Philosopher

Some people might call Jonathon Keats an artist, but he calls himself an experimental philosopher. His body of work explores the way that human life intersects with political and economic systems. His first major work, in the year 2000, involved sitting in a chair thinking for hours, and then selling his thoughts to patrons at prices calculated on the basis of their income. He once copyrighted his own mind as a sculpture. He created a ringtone based on John Cage's famous piece, 4'33”, which is four minutes and thirty-three seconds of complete silence. He built a pinhole camera that takes photographic exposures lasting 100 years. In Berkeley, California, he built a temple for the worship of science. Recently, he has been involved in efforts to formalize rights of nature. Jonathon challenges us to look carefully at the assumptions built into our markets, our democracies and our technologies, and constantly seems to do it in ways that seem abstract at the time, but end up prefiguring political or cultural issues years or decades before they erupt. He's a wonderful guide to this territory, and to the big questions it involves. In this conversation Matt and Jonathon discuss the philosophy of timekeeping. They consider the connectedness and the alienation of being on universal atomic time, the promise of alternative systems such as the river clock, and how different notions of timekeeping influence our understanding of democracy and nature.Jonathon Keats is an experimental philosopher, artist and writer. He is currently a fellow at the Berggruen Institute, a research fellow at the Long Now Foundation, a research associate at the University of Arizona, principal philosopher at Earth Law Center and an artist-in-residence at Hyundai, the SETI Institute and Flux Projects. His most recent book is “You Belong to the Universe: Buckminster Fuller and the Future” (Oxford University Press).Mentioned:Alaska RiverTimeIf you have feedback or ideas for future episodes, email us at info@radicalxchange.org.Host: Matt PrewittGuest: Jonathan KeatsProducer: Jack Henderson Connect with RadicalxChange Foundation:WebsiteXBlueSkyYouTubeLinkedInDiscord

Choreographer Sir Wayne McGregor is one of the most acclaimed, innovative and influential figures in contemporary dance. His works are often the result of creative collaborations with artists, musicians, filmmakers, or with scientists to explore technological issues. In 2006 he was appointed as Resident Choreographer at the Royal Ballet. He has created more than 20 new works at Covent Garden in that time, including Chroma, set to music by Joby Talbot and The White Stripes, and Woolf Works, a full-length ballet based on the life and writings of Virginia Woolf. More recently, McGregor brought the post-apocalyptic vision of Margaret Atwood to the stage in his ballet MaddAddam, based on the writer's acclaimed trilogy of novels. He has worked as a movement director on films including Harry Potter Goblet Of Fire and Mary Queen Of Scots, collaborated with bands including Radiohead and Chemical Brothers, and choreographed the virtual concert, ABBA Voyage. In October 2025, Somerset House in London will mount a landmark exhibition dedicated to McGregor's trailblazing collaborations that have radically defined how we think about performance, movement, and the body. Having won numerous awards, including two Oliviers, Sir Wayne McGregor was knighted in 2024.Wayne McGregor talks to John Wilson about his childhood in Stockport, where he took dance classes and was inspired by John Travolta's moves in Saturday Night Fever. He recalls the house and techno music of the late 80s when he was a student, and how the freedom of expression he felt on nightclub dance-floors informed his style of choreography. Whilst living in New York after leaving university, Wayne came across an open-air performance by the legendary American choreographer Merce Cunningham, whose company was dancing to live music conducted by the avant-garde composer John Cage. It was a chance encounter that had a profound impact on McGregor. He also discusses how science and technology has been a major thematic influence on much of his work in recent years, and how AI has been used to create new works through analysis of physical movement and artistic expression.Producer Edwina Pitman

We are so excited to have the one and only Bob Bralove as our guest on No Simple Road this week! Reminiscing about the magnetic pull of legendary live performances, we reflect on the timeless impact of icons like Stevie Wonder, the Grateful Dead, and The Beatles. The past's vibrant music scene, where creative titans like John Cage and Salvador Dali mingled, serves as a backdrop for our discussion on the evolution of musical exploration. From the analog magic of pre-digital discoveries to the digital era's effortless access, this episode offers a nostalgic yet forward-looking perspective on how the journey of discovering music has transformed but continues to shape personal and collective experiences. Music, an eternal uniter, transcends the imaginary divisions of the world—this truth resonates throughout our conversation. As we navigate the delicate dance of personal expression and collaborative creation, the evocative power of music emerges as a comforting force. Taking all of Bob's influences and creating the new album 'Acoustic Conversations' has been a journey. We get to hear all about the creation of improvised sounds with violinist Patti Weiss and how this new album was born.
