Michael Horovitz….live poetry reading
and introduces new film by Colin Still.
In 2004 I launched the William Blake Klezmatrix
band, featuring Peter Lemer on piano, Madeline
Solomon's flute, Annie Whitehead's trombone &
vocals, and my readings, songs, jazzpoems &
anglosaxophone. We play original compositions,
spontaneous improvisations, multiple variations of the
biblical, folk, blues, jazz, rock and klezmer grooves, &
our settings of William Blake's songs & prophecies –
for example, performing The Tyger as a calypso. Last
April we toured Belgium, and Colin Still, whose Optic
Nerve outfit has produced films (available on dvd) of
Allen Ginsberg, Robert Creeley, Michael McClure et al),
followed us around, resulting in some revealing
footage of WBK rehearsals and performances. I will be
introducing and commenting on clips, performing a
couple of numbers, and taking Q&A tonight. –
