DESCRIPTION
V/A
The hidden city

Label : Sub Rosa
Year : 2004
Format : CD
Style : Experimental
Availability : Out of stock


Description :The cd 'The Hidden City' consists of some 15 sound portraits from the city, by artists that are featured in the book or have an interesting relationship with certain places or addresses in Gothenburg. Like Carsten Nicolai/Alva Noto who contributes with a remix/complete reconstruction of opus 1, Party, by the Gothenburg composer Rune Lindblad (1923-1991) who is interviewed in the book, in the chapter concerning the history of the Radium record label, run by Carl Michael von Hausswolff and Ulrich Hillebrand in the 1980s. The DJ/musician Christoffer Berg (here under the name Christoffer Brus), is doing a soundportrait of a small pond, photographed by Stefan Schneider in the book, and written about in a small passage as a possible place for the famous haiku by zen poet Basho ('The old pond/frog jumps in/splash!'). Christina Kubisch, sound artist from Berlin, has made a recording of the old mechanical carillon from the 18th century, in the belfry of the Christina church. Minimalist composer Peter Hansen is painting picture of the frozen winter landscape in the archipelago of Gothenburg in his chamber orchestra piece Winter Air. The record is a collage of the city, just like the book.
