VERT (LIVE)

VERTâS HOMAGE TO MORTON FELDMAN, JELLYROLLMORTONFELDMANTWO IS THE RESULT OF 5 TRANSFORMED PIANO ROLLS OF VARIOUS LENGTHS BEING PLAYED BACK SIMULTANEOUSLY. EACH OF THE ROLLS, ORIGINALLY RECORDED BY JELLY ROLL MORTON IN THE 1920S, HAS BEEN TRANSCRIBED INTO MIDI INFORMATION, PITCHED DOWN, SLOWED DOWN, TIME-STRETCHED AND TWEAKED TO ROUGHLY 120 TIMES THE ORIGINAL LENGTH. PLAYING EACH ROLL ONCE GENERATES OVER 4 HOURS OF MUSIC, BUT COMBINING THEM, UTILIZING SURROUND SOUND, PRODUCES INFINITE, OPEN-ENDED PLAYING TIMES.
