The Poet's Tongue

  • Antwerpen: Guy Schraenen, 1977
By CARRIÓN, Ulises
Antwerpen: Guy Schraenen, 1977. This copy fine. Scarce, with a single OCLC record discovered.. Audio cassette in original housing with stapled booklet (8 pages) as liner. The first published collection of Ulises Carrión's conceptual audioworks; a number of which were created specifically for this Schraenen recording. As per the artist's statement printed to the liner: "Each piece is a series of vocal units that unfolds according to simple rules. Their beginning and end are arbitrary—they could go on infinitely. They should go on. They go on." Side 1: Hamlet, for two voices (15'36, with Martha Hawley) and Aritmética (5'19); Side 2: Three Spanish Pieces (7'21), Poema (1'57), First Spanish Lesson (7'13), and 45 Revoluciones por Minuto (3'59). (Dear Reader, p. 128; Hill 38).
