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.
