“ANDREW ZEALLEY: THEMES & VARIATIONS” is the third installment in Zealley’s “How To Explain Silence To A Dead Hare” series of vinyl project editions. The album showcases selected film, video, installation and performance music by Zealley, commissioned by visual artists – including Luis Jacob, Joey Medaglia, Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay, and Scott Treleaven.
On “THEMES & VARIATIONS”, Zealley intersects various aspects of his sound practise: field recordings, audio art, existential house, tonal mantra, and musical form/composition. At the center of “THEMES & VARIATIONS” are the scores for Scott Treleaven’s trilogy of short films: GOLD, SILVER and LUSTRE. Composed and produced in 2005-2006, this group of instrumental compositions is punctuated, for the album, by four thematically-related works: APOTHEOSIS II, HABITAT THEME 2, SIGNAL, and ARENA.
Produced by PSBEUYS, “THEMES & VARIATIONS” is mastered for vinyl at The E Room, by Peter J. Moore, and features performances by Luis Jacob, Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay, violinist Adm Shedden, and the PSBEUYS-directed Prospect Cottage Strings.
Edition of 300, signed and numbered.
