BANZ, Stefan (ed.)
Louis Michel Eilshemius. Six Musical Moods

The first publication ever dedicated to the musical works of American painter Louis Michel Eilshemius, who was discovered by Marcel Duchamp in 1917. Halfway between romantic tradition and futurist audacity, these sound pieces which prefigure the use of sampling are interpreted with virtuosity by the young pianist Imke Lichtwark in the accompanying CD. The book also includes texts by Roberto Ohrt, Sven Daigger, Stefan Banz, and by Eilshemius himself. [publisher's note]
