Kitchen Archives: NY 1979

| Over the last thirty years, The Kitchen has made extraordinary efforts to document every on-site performance with video and/or audiotape. In the fall of 2001 close to 300 audio recordings of Kitchen concerts from the 1970s and early 80s were discovered. While the tape boxes promised rare and exciting recordings by such artists as John Cage, Philip Glass, Laurie Anderson, and David Tudor (in the first box alone!), we were not able to listen to any of these reels without the funds and facilities to provide proper cleaning and re-formatting. A recent collaborative partnership with The Looking Glass Studios and the online label, Orange Mountain Music, has allowed for the restoration of a number of reels from the Archive. This work has been done towards the ultimate goal of a series of CDs, of which the 2-disc set New Music, New York 1979 is the first in the series. NMNY 1979 documents outstanding performances by artists including Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Pauline Oliveros, Meredith Monk, Tony Conrad, Jon Gibson and many more. Future releases will include recordings by Sonic Youth, Rhys Chatham, Composers Inside Electronics, Robert Ashley and Frederic Rzewski among others. |
