(April 2015) : ...Davis conceived You Have the Right to Remain Silent as a concerted work for clarinetist J. D. Parran, chamber ensemble, and Kurzweil synthesizer. It has four movements: "Integration," "Loss," Incarceration," and "Dance of the Other." There's an obvious political intent to the music. "Integration" begins in nervous bursts, hits a polyrhythmic groove, and ends on nervous bursts again. Periodically, the players chant "You have the right to remain silent."                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    "Loss" is a moody slow movement with a remarkably freaky duet between the clarinet and the Kurzweil at its center. The clarinetist uses "extended" techniques (overblowing, etc.) so that at times you can't distinguish between the "natural" and the synthesized sound. This leads to a beautiful lament, followed by a big-band blues -- according to the composer, an homage to Mingus.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    "Incarceration" is a hard-edged scherzo, with emphasis on the percussion and brass sections. Occasionally, the players chant more from the Miranda warning: "Anything you say or do may be held against you in a court of law"; "You have the right to speak to an attorney," and so on. As the music proceeds, the chant fragments. Davis may refer to this when he speaks of a relationship between Sprechstimme and hip-hop.                                                                                                                                                                                                                    The brief "Dance of the Other" begins with a simple pentatonic theme and moves into polyrhythmic jazz and a kind of "phasing." Structurally it relates to rondo...                                                                                                                                                                                        http://www.classicalcdreview.com/1036.html                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  An Arresting Release: Anthony Davis "Notes from the Underground"             Anthony Davis: Notes from the Underground - Gil Rose, Boston ...     ANTHONY DAVIS: “Notes from the Underground” = Notes from the ...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 (via https://open.spotify.com/track/2HyVbhPnz1R7l3vtBJWJXb)                                                                                                                                                     Anthony Davis: Notes from the Underground - Deezer                                   Anthony Davis: Notes from the Underground by Boston Modern ...             DRAM: Anthony Davis: Notes From The Underground
