J. Halle: Outrages and Interludes

Outrages and Interludes features eight works documenting John Halle’s decade-long in¬volvement with radical left politics. Halle’s fusion of vernacular styles, kinetic rhythms, formal sophistication and subtle lyricism point to a new direction in music and political engagement that nevertheless maintains deep roots in the American musical tradition. Kyle Gann: “as one of the great unsung totalists…” Pitchfork Media: “Seethes with conviction…before burning off, disappearing into the distance.”
