*** NEWS & INFORMATION FROM oodiscs ***
Our new compact disc, MESHES - MUSIC FOR THEATRE & FILM by TEIJI ITO
features one of contemporary music's most elusive mavericks who at the age
of seventeen was already composing music for the influential avant-garde
film work of Maya Deren. Ito learned Haitian ceremonial and secular
drumming and as early as 1955, incorporated it with his knowledge of
traditional Japanese, African and contemporary classical music. Ito was a
shocking precursor to today's cutting-edge composers. This unprecedented
CD features him intermixing a wide range of traditional and ethnic
instruments, all of which are performed with great skill by the composer
himself on this rare original recording. Ito's MESHES establishes him as
one of the most innovative and precedent setting composers in the NY
underground. For further information about Teiji Ito please visit us at:
