Second week of James Wright’s “At The Executed Murderer’s Grave.”
This is the only take I managed to record this week, but it’s a good one. Four voices, one piano, and the Marantz dramatically cutting out seconds before the end of the poem and the word “underground.” Lots of vocal complexity: decoration, echoing, improvising.
Recorded Saturday, July 10th, in the Sherwood Room in Levering Hall
Joe Martin (piano, mus dir), Richard Goldberg (vox) Dara Weinberg (vox, dir), Jesse Wharton (vox), Gavin Whitt (vox)
