Galas.

At Saint Thomas the Apostle Harlem documents Galás' volcanic May 2016 performances as
Saint Thomas the Apostle church in Harlem, NY.
The concert, produced by Intravenal Sound Operations and Red Bull Music Academy,
was composed exclusively of what Galás calls "death songs." Sung in Italian, German,
French, and Greek, the performances include Galás' dramatic settings of the death
poems by Cesare Pavese and Ferdinand Freiligrath, as well as interpretations of
songs by Jacques Brel ("Fernand", "Amsterdam") and Albert Ayler ("Angels," sung
by Galás, who has always believed that Ayler's work is also vocal music).

ISO     004     DIAMANDA GALAS : DE-FORMATION-PIANO VARATIONS           CD      04.2021

        1.      De-formation: Piano Variations                  21:20

Works for solo piano from the frankly terrifying Diamanda Galas. 'De-formation: Piano
Variations' seems to contain one twenty-minute-plus track which is inspired by a
Georg Heym poem regarding experimental treatments given to maimed soldiers in the
First World War. Initially 'De-formation: Piano Variations' was written to be the
backing for one of her distinctive vocal pieces, but Galas decided to let this thing
stay instrumental. The result is a stormy record of dense keyboard experiments.
