Choreosonic Music Of The New Dance Theatre Of Alwin Nikolais

Shivaree A Playful Exorcising Of Imps (Mirrors, 1958)

Choreosonic Music Of The New Dance Theatre Of Alwin Nikolais
Hanover-Signature Record Coporation HM 5005
1959

The music on this album, for the most part, is made up of somewhat disjunctive percussive "sounds". The recording features a dramatic and appealing rhythm structure and there are differences enough, from track to track, to make for a listen that I found riveting.

From the back cover: The Symbols - Five youngsters ranging from 16 to 21 years of age. Respective instruments: Amplified Bass Guitar, Fender Guitar, Electric Guitar, Drums and Hammond Organ.

Budget release on which the tracks butt up against one another to make room for "Over One Hour Of Music".

The cover art is misleading. The recording is made up of a curious blend of easy listening, heavy on the steel guitar which gives some of the music a "country/Hawaiian" vibe. But there are a number of good tracks on this album with a 60s groove (not to mention the surprise blues track... hope I selected the correct track title above).
