Christian Marclay, Yasunao Tone, Christian Wolff : Event
Asphodel ASP 2032, 2005

Originally recorded in early 1998 when it was improvised for a performance of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, Event is a three way tug of war of formats. Marclay using his trademarked turntables and records, Tone with prepared CDÕs and CD players and Christian Wolff utilizing a cassette recorder/player (plus bass, various percussion and a melodica). The result is an ocean of screams, bleets, chirps, howls and drones with each player stepping into the spotlight periodically and seemlessly. Just as tides ebb and flow, so does the ÒtrichotomyÓ of these three wise men.
