125 años de Merz
De todas las versiones sobre la Ursonate que corren por estos mundos, os invitamos a ver estas dos:
UrSonate is a collaboration between percussionist Steven Schick, sound designer Shahrokh Yadegari, and video artist/percussionist Ross Karre. Steven Schick recites a memorized performance of Kurt Schwitters dada poem from the 20s/30s. Shahrokh Yadegari manipulates the sound and diffuses into surround sound speakers. Ross Karre captured the performance on HD video and edited this piece shown here as the 4th part to UrSonate. music.ucsd.edu

Lutz Rath performs Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948) -- his "Ursonate" (1922-32) -- with voice and cello, creating an extraordinary new approach to performing a foundational work of "sound poetry." Performed at White Box in NYC on August 26, 2010 in a program with an "axial composition" by David Arner, George Quasha, and Charles Stein, also online here. Curation by Juan Puntes. Camerawork by Susie Lim. Video editing by George Quasha.
The work has been performed at various speeds (Schwitters' own performance, audible online, is not one of the fastest). Lutz Rath performs only a part of the work for around 13 minutes, whereas typically a full performance lasts 45 minutes. He also combines cello (spontaneous composition) with a more formal spoken performance of a part of the text. This could become a new way to perform Schwitters. The title has been translated "Originary Sonata" or "Primal Sonata." The text/sound poem was influenced by Raoul Hausmann's poem "fmsbw" which Schwitters' heard recited by Hausmann in Prague in 1921. Schwitters often performed the piece, developing it over time, and eventually publishing his notations for the recital in the last Merz periodical (1932).
