LETTERS Concerto," from Suicide Squadron (1941) (also known as Dangerous Moonlight), and Hubert Bath's "Cornish Rhapsody," from Love Story (1944). Edward Sharratt London, Ontario Thank you for your article on the history of the accordion [see Of,May '80]. This instrument has never received the recognition it has deserved, and yet, as a performing accordionist for many years, I know that people seem to enjoy listening to it The one I own can sound like a piano, organ, string section, or synthesizer, but more importantly, it also sounds like an accordion, a truly unique sound that cannot be imitated by any other instrument. I hope you will run more articles about my favorite axe in the future. Roger W. Fox Kansas City, MO I have been following the Paul Ellingson/ Oscar Peterson controversy foTlrTe~pa^riew months [see CK Letters, Feb. '80, March '80, and June '80], and I want to say that I eagerly anticipate the arrival of his two-record set with its 6000-word essay on vertical/horizontal evolution. But I wil! enjoy even more watching his record get dustier and dustier as I pass in and out of the record store over the next fifty years. You see, Mr. Ellingson, 6000-word essays on 21st-century modes of musical/societal alienation by self-appointed pseudo-intellectual demigods don't make for fantastic sales, since most people out here in the real world buy albums because of the artist's ability to bring moods or emotions from us. Maybe we should all be ashamed of our primitive gut-level link to music, but like it or not, that's the way it is. But-please, Mr. Ellingsdn, donYlet tHeslFrealities get to you. The next time you find yourself listening to a jazz album with a horizontal approach, try propping up your turntable until it's playing vertically. I can guarantee you'll hear a difference. Steve Worley Wichita, KS I read Paul Ellingson's latest letter, and I believe th!s~gTjyTsTioTTjazz musician or fan. A jazz player uses his interpretations and feelings when he's playing. Who gives a damn about whether the sound is polytonal, horizontal, vertical, circular, diagonal, or zig-zag? Paul's use of some of these adjectives to describe music convinces me that he knows nothing about jazz and has no feeling for it. My hunch is that the album he's doing won't be worth anything. He says it will help us understand what's going on in American music 1 can hardly wait. On second thought, I can. About 83 years. Art Hiliery Lynwood, CA As a member of AMICA (Automatic Musical Instruments Collector's Association), I was delighted with your fine article on reproducing pianos [see CK, March '80L However, I can't help concluding that the author must not be very well acquainted with a good-quality, well-tuned, eiectrically-run, 88-note pneumatic player piano. "Tinny"? It ain't necessarily so! Granted, the 88-note player piano is not a suitable vehicle for reproducing music that requires changes in tempo and dynamics to Continued on page 66 6 CONTEMPORARY KEYBOARD/AUGUST 1980 |
