Lenore Von Stein (singer/composer) has been making collages using a
mixture of musical disciplines and media for several years. Recent concert
performances include the collage "There Is No Such Thing As Race"
with Daniel Carter, Rob Brown, among many others, "What My Style is
Made Of" and "Tolerating Ambition" with Tony Trischka. Von
Stein originated the role in Samuel Beckett's one-person piece, "The
Expelled." Amanda MacBlane in the New Music Box called Von Stein's
recently released 1687 recording "I Haven't Been Able To Lie And Tell
The Truth" "Stark musical reality infused with energy." Lenore
Von Stein's other recordings on the 1687 label are "Blind Love = PoRno?"
and "Love Is Dead." "Tradition is in the eye of the beholder...surreal and uninhibited.somewhere between Cathy Berberian's microtones and Ella Fitzgerald's silky scats... strikingly offbeat lyrics, subtler, ever innovative." Kyle Gann & Gene Santoro, Village Voice & Pulse. |
