Fred Frith: The Happy End Problem
by John Kelman
Since emerging in the early 1970s with Henry Cow, multi-instrumentalist Fred Frith has created a large, stylistically diverse body of work and a reputation for being both a fearless improviser and composer--fearless because he has steadfastly avoided any trappings that might lead to predictability, stylistic or otherwise.

Later he was to be a member of Skeleton Crew with Tom Cora and Zeena Parkins, Curlew, Bill Laswell's Material and ...

Still/Urban Area Sismica - Forlì - 13.01.2007 Acquattata in solitudine nell’oscurità, nascosta in fondo a una serie di curve tutte uguali e diluita in una nebbia appiccicosa l’Area Sismica non è esattamente un luogo facile da raggiungere... si perdono persino i musicisti!
