I've been re-reading Partch's 'Genesis' as a prelude to some musical theatre work for 2003, in particular the opening essay on Corporealism vs. Abstraction. I...
Hi Alison, ... It's not very *substantial*, but when Partch's "Enclosures" series came out I wrote a review in the Village Voice, May 7, 1996, headlined...
Alison and Kyle, Alison: I'll get an electronic copy of the presentation we did a year ago on the corporealism and ritual theatre in Partch's work. This was a...
... Hello Alison! As much as i feel Partch's concept of Corporealism important, i feel his placing it as "vs. Abstraction" has problems. Abstraction can mean...
Hello everyone!! Are there any of his works in print? I would like to check them out and study them if possible! I'm always interested in reading and studying...
Hi Jon, ... Thanks, Jon, it's good to get confirmation from someone who worked with Partch and knows his music a lot more intimately than I do. ... I know just...

... Yep, that is what it has boiled down to in the new millenium: Partch is reduced to the number 43, which he always hated... More on this in the near future....
Alison, Jon, Kraig, Well, I should have kept my big mouth shut, a thought that has frequent occasion to float through my mind. But after three requests for my...

... Sorry, I don't play that game. I'm not an advocate and I perfer not to take sides in a conflicts which plainly makes no sense. I am merely reporting on a...
