Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza

A 47minute blackandwhite film by Theo Gallehr and depicts Il Gruppo in various candid stages in interviews setting up recording working with eachother and performing onstage The players showcased here include Bertoncini Branchi Evangelisti Heineman Kayn Morricone Vandor and Frederic Rzewski Its interesting to watch the composers interact and perform spontaneously as it is to see them preparing the piano by tying horsehair around the strings and rubbing the interior with empty plastic bottles and vaccuum cleaner attachments
