Marianne Amacher is one of electronic music's truly legendary mavericks, whose music has been presented almost exclusively in huges spaces and installations for the past twenty years.
This diverse collection of electronic soundscapes and "ear-dances" was chosen by the composer especially for Tzadik to work in the more intimate settings of compact disc.
Spectacular acoustical effects take you to expansive worlds of dancing difference tones and psychedelic sonorities. A rare release by one of the most reclusive and elusive of today's musical visionaries.

One of contemporary music’s greatest and most elusive mavericks returns to Tzadik with yet another CD of ear bending electronic sounds. A student of Stockhausen and close collaborator of John Cage and David Behrman, Amacher has been creating acoustic art, electronic soundscapes and site-specific installation work since 1967. A new CD of Amacher compositions is a true cause for celebration and Teo! Is one of her greatest works. The winner of Prix Ars Electronica in the Digital Musics category, Teo! premiered in the Esplanade of the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City and is a collaboration with scientists at the Sun Pyramid of Teotihuacan. An absolutely stunning electronic masterpiece!

About (Eng)
image torrent_8102_pic_7

She was born in Kane, Pennsylvania, to an American nurse and a Swiss freight train worker. As the only child, she grew up playing the piano. Amacher left Kane to attend the University of Pennsylvania where she received a B.F.A in 1964. While there she studied composition with George Rochberg and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Subsequently, she did graduate work in acoustics and computer science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

While in residence at the University there, in 1967, she created City Links: Buffalo, a 28-hour piece using 5 microphones in different parts of the city, broadcast live by radio station WBFO. There were several other pieces in the "City Links" series, though many details are not yet known. A common feature was the use of telephone lines to connect the sound environments of different sites into the same space, a very early example of what is now called "telematic performance" and preceded much more famous examples of this by Max Neuhaus and others.

Her major pieces have almost exclusively been site specific, often using many loudspeakers to create what she called "structure borne sound", which is a differentiation with "airborne sound", the paradox intentional. By using many diffuse sound sources (either not in the space or speakers facing at the walls or floors) she would create the psychoacoustic illusions of sound shapes/"precense". Amacher's early work is best represented in the three series of multimedia installations produced in the United States, Europe, and Japan: the sonic telepresence series, "CITY LINKS" 1-22 (1967- ); the architecturally staged "MUSIC FOR SOUND JOINED ROOMS" (1980- ) and the "MINI-SOUND SERIES" (1985- ) a new multimedia form which she created, that is unique in its use of architecture and serialized narrative.

She worked extensively with the physiological (not psychoacoustic) phenomenon called otoacoustic emission, in which the ears themselves act as sound generating devices. Amacher composed several "ear dances" designed to stimulate clear "third" tones coming from the listener's ears. The subtitle of her first Tzadik Records album Sound Characters (Making the Third Ear) references these "ear tones".

"When played at the right sound level, which is quite high and exciting, the tones in this music will cause your ears to act as neurophonic instruments that emit sounds that will seem to be issuing directly from your head ... (my audiences) discover they are producing a tonal dimension of the music which interacts melodically, rhythmically, and spatially with the tones in the room. Tones 'dance' in the immediate space of their body, around them like a sonic wrap, cascade inside ears, and out to space in front of their eyes ... Do not be alarmed! Your ears are not behaving strange or being damaged! ... these virtual tones are a natural and very real physical aspect of auditory perception, similar to the fusing of two images resulting in a third three dimensional image in binocular perception ... I want to release this music which is produced by the listener ..."

Over the years she received several major commissions in the United States and Europe with occasional work in Asia and Central and South America. In 1998 she was awarded a grant from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists Award. In 2005, she was awarded the Prix Ars Electronica (the Golden Nica) in the "Digital Musics" category for her project "TEO! A sonic sculpture". At the time of her death she had been working three years on a 40 channel piece commissioned by The Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center in Troy NY.

She never held a full-time job after being a typist in the early 1960s and lived simply in Kingston, NY until her death. For the last decade of her life she taught at the Bard College MFA program.

Maryanne Amacher (1938-2009) являлась одной из бесспорно знаковых фигур в электронной музыке в США, её авторитет признавали буквально все - от Джона Кейджа до Джона Зорна. Для заокеанских слушателей Мериэнн Амачер, очевидно, оставалась в значительной степени «темной лошадкой», ибо ее дискография исчерпывается лишь двумя – с перерывом в почти десятилетие и при том довольно поздними – релизами на Цадике, в то время как ее основная музыкальная деятельность, связанная с инсталляциями, как правило, в больших и очень больших помещениях, построенными на использовании эффекта т.н. отоакустической эмиссии (генерирования слабых звуковых колебаний во внутреннем ухе), когда при соблюдении определенных условий (в частности, высокой громкости) слушатель неожиданно начинает слышать некие собственные звуки, идущие как бы из его головы, которые затем вступают во взаимодействия с окружающими звуками, оставалась чем-то, скорее, легендарным, чем реальным, хотя она и выступала и в Европе и в Азии, но все ее работы были привязаны к акустике определенного места и зачастую не могли быть повторены где-то еще. К сожалению, об этом приходится говорить в прошедшем времени, т.к. 22 октября 2009 года Мериэнн Амачер скончалась. Можно полагать, что ее смерть, как это порой случается, станет поводом для многих наконец-то познакомится с ее неординарным творчеством.
