Synopsis
Louis Michel Eilshemius: Six Musical Moods delves into the musical oeuvre of Eilshemius (1864–1941). In addition to photographs, paintings, drawings, scores and texts, this publication includes a CD of seven of his compositions recorded by German pianist Imke Lichtwark. His musical works are characterized by the same light-hearted, romantic warmth and affection as his paintings and drawings, alternating between old-fashioned flair and futuristic audacity. This he achieved, for example, by extrapolating and rearranging sequences of musical notes from the history of music, not unlike the "sampling" that came much later. The story goes that the New Jersey–born artist was discovered by Marcel Duchamp at the famous First Annual Exhibition of the Society of Independent Artists in New York. Whatever the provenance of this tale, it serves the impression Eilshemius made as a visionary and singular artist.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Six Musical Moods is the very first publication to have as its theme the unknown musical oeuvre of the American painter Louis Michel Eilshemius, who was discovered by Marcel Duchamp in 1917.Those few compositions of his that are still in existence are-like his paintings and drawings-pervaded by a light-hearted, romantic warmth and affection, fleetingly alternating between old-fashioned flair and futuristic audacity.This he achieved, for example, by extrapolating and rearranging sequences of musical notes from the history of music in order to create perky compositions of the kind known to us only since the emergence of sampling in the late 1970s.The young pianist Imke Lichtwark recorded these unknown pieces with verve and virtuosity in the Chamber Music Hall of the Rostock Academy of Music and Drama. The publication also includes texts by Roberto Ohrt, Sven Daigger, Stefan Banz, and by Louis Michel Eilshemius himself.
