Partch, Harry
The Harry Partch Collection, Volume 4 (The Bewitched)



Label: New World Records
Country: USA

ÒThe Bewitched is in the tradition of world-wide ritual theatre. It is the opposite of specialized. I conceived and wrote it in California in the period 1952-55, following the several performances of my version of Sophocles' Oedipus. In spirit, if not wholly in content, it is a satyr-play. It is a seeking for releaseÑthrough satire, whimsy, magic, ribaldryÑfrom the catharsis of tragedy. It is an essay toward a miraculous abeyance of civilized rigidity, in the feeling that the modern spirit might thereby find some ancient and magical sense of rebirth. Each of the 12 scenes is a theatrical unfolding of nakedness, a psychological strip-tease, orÑa diametric reversal, which has the effect of underlining the complementary character, the strange affinity, of seeming opposites.Ó ÑHarry Partch

Remastered from the original mono master tapes.
