Menalled, Ezequiel -performed By Ensemble Modelo62-

Battleship Potemkin

This new score for Sergei Eisenstein's 'Battleship Potemkin' internalizes the frantic, restless nature of the story-lines, breathes the jump cuts and fast action switches in reflections, mirror images, pan-shots, broad horizons and intense close-ups, pulled focus (and loss thereof) and forced perspectives. We hear the granulated nature of the film itself, almost see the razor slicing through the edit frame. While we miss the rattle of the projector, the music calls to mind the flicker of its light beam through the dusty din of time and space immemorial, materialized and contained for generations to follow in the celluloid. A disintegration reconstituted too, revitalized in the new performance by Modelo62.
