Jazz wedding casual; Bach Dancing and Dynamite.
No finer setting. This was the first time I performed with the Prophet-5—borrowed from the Service Dept. It had taken me a while to get used to it, but I managed to get the right sounds at the right time.
The question of context plays back into the synthesizer player’s duties. In other words, the syntheteur should be able to make appropriate gross selections but also appropriate subtle adjustments so that the instrument is as (expressive & compelling = musical) as possible. So from this experience on I became keenly interested in problems around how to use the programmable synthesizer in performance. Recordings of this typical jazz exists only to document a baseline against which to compare MUSIC for the INNER FILM [CD] which was my answer to those problems.
