Solo

Hall, Erik

Solo
With Solo Three, Hall brings this trilogy to a sweeping close. Instead of focusing on a single composition, he weaves together multiple works by several visionary composers: Glenn Branca, Charlemagne Palestine, Laurie Spiegel, and a return to Steve Reich. The result is a rich, varied homage to American minimalism_at once reverent and exploratory. Branca's "The Temple of Venus Pt. 1" unfolds in oscillating organ and prepared piano; Palestine's "Strumming Music" becomes a meditative blur of felted piano and guitar; Spiegel's "A Folk Study" is recast with acoustic warmth in lieu of electronics; and Reich's "Music for a Large Ensemble" closes the album with a 16-minute, kaleidoscopic rush of overlapping melodies and jubilant rhythmic patterns.
