All About Jazz: Ostrava Days 2019
Publikováno: 17.1.2020
"The biennial Ostrava Days festival rolled around again, and there's nothing quite like a once-every-two-years event to make time appear to flow even faster than normal. As a moderne composition festival, it is difficult to accurately fix its stylistic placement, although there are returning concerns with free improvisation, electronics, minimalism, vocal music, performance art, marathon presentations and site-specific events. We could say that the chief attitudinal guiding figures of Ostrava Days include John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen / Ives Ensemble, Morton Feldman, Frederic Rzewski, perhaps Steve Reich and Philip Glass, but now Julius Eastman."
