These “townies” eat chocolate with churros on Carrer de Petritxol, they go to bed watching “Ventdelplà” and they think they’re making avant-garde paintings with duck paté . Joan Enric Barceló, Eduard Costa, Ferran Piqué and Dani Alegret make up Els Amics de les Arts, a musical group whose style is “hard to define”, even for them. What’s clear is that a large part of their uniqueness is due their song lyrics, charged with surrealist ingenuity and intended to raise a smile from those who listen to them. Switch on the speakers and find out for yourself!
Hans Richter’s 1927 Short Surrealist masterpiece: “Ghosts Before Breakfast” re-scored. This film initially had a soundtrack which was lost when the original print was destroyed by the Nazi’s as ‘degenerate art’. This music – with Jacques Van Rhijn on clarinet, Don Brosnan on bass, Jed Woodhouse on drums, Clive Painter on guitar – was recorded at Clive’s prior to the sessions for our re-score of Richter’s full length magnum opus: “Dream That Money Can Buy” for the British Film Institute in 2005. (Turn off the sound if you want to hear it as Richter didn’t really intend it..) Thanks to Bryan James and the Internet Archive for the footage.
