Herewith, Parallel Octave’s first album, directed by the venerable Danny Schwartz. It contains jazz, choruses, singing, poetry by Heine and Coleridge in both German and English, and obstruse (obtuse + abstruse) criticism of poetry, including portions of the Preface to “Lyrical Ballads.” 16 tracks; 20 minutes long. It is awesome.
This album is FREE! We’ll be giving it away all summer, but you can also listen or download right now on SoundCloud.
(One note: these tracks are not available for ANTHOLOGY filmmakers. The team that made Albatross Tree is planning some kind of massive filmopoetic extravaganza.)
