Goldstein: Live At Fire In The Valley Malcolm Goldstein (violin) A significant addition to the discography of this important and underdocumented avant garde figure. "A doyen of the American avant garde," (The Wire, May 1999) Goldstein co-founded the Tone Roads Ensemble in the early 1960s with James Tenney and Philip Corner, and went on to establish an aggressively individual voice as a violinist and composer. Later his reputation as one of the new music's great instrumentalists and solo performers prompted John Cage, Ornette Coleman, and Christian Wolff, among others, to compose for him. Goldstein has lived quietly for many years in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, and is too seldom heard from. This beautiful solo set from the 1997 Fire In the Valley festival is a fairly stupefying demonstration of his unique genius.
