keving Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 That was fascinating, thank you. I'm probably going to have to read the Daniel Goldmark book mentioned in the foot notes now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalapeno Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) You can get a lot of the recordings on import from the USA. Apparently the LA Symphony used to use his recording sessions as technique work-outs - with all the atonal scales and 64th note sequences they'd come out from the studio wrecked and drenched in sweat.

lowdown Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 I believe also that one of the Violinists, when looking at the gig diary would get the horrors when the Tom & Jerry sessions came in.... Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I did a gig with a UK vibes player (Alan something - he polayed the original Play School theme apparently) who used to do sessions for these animators during a strike by US studio musicians and he said it was a lot harder to read than Stravinsky. Really atonal and rhythmically complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
