Pynchon inspired album

[Ya Sam]

Pynchon-Inspired AlbumOrchestral group Land of Kush has recorded a five-track CD entitled "Against the Day" and reportedly inspired by Thomas Pynchon's novel of the same name.Inspired by and named after the Thomas Pynchon’s novel Against the Day, the music is broken into five sections, named for the book’s chapters. The three primary movements are centred around solo vocalists (Jason Grimmer, Molly Sweeney, Radwan Moumneh) who composed their own lyrics for the piece. In between vocal performances, Shalabi gives the orchestra ample opportunity to strut its stuff, including solos and long instrumental passages that display Sam’s unique balance of composition and ‘expository’ or improvisational instruction.Here are the track titles:1. The Light Over The Ranges
2. Iceland Spar
3. Bilocations
4. Against The Day
5. Rue du Départhttp://www.conversationalreading.com/2009/01/pynchon-inspire.html#comments
