(KOSTALANETZ, RICHARD). KOSTALANETZ, RICHARD THE GOSPELS ABRIDGED (CD) - 1990 NORTON FAMILY CHRISTMAS GREETINGSanta Monica, CA, Peter Norton Family Foundation., 1990, First Edition. CD + Insert in Jewel Box, 8vo, np (16pp), 1 duotone illustration. In 1990 the Peter Norton Family commissioned noted text/sound historian and artist Richard Kostalanetz to produce one of their annual Christmas projects. According to the composer "The Gospels Abridged" began as an extended, one hundred and twenty minute fugue of the first four books of the New Testament heard simultaneously. As Luke, Matthew, Mark and John tell the same story in four different ways, I cast them into a continuous quartet, where the four speakers, individually recorded, are electronically mixed to perform as a string quartet might, with one or another speaker becoming dominant as his or her lines become more meaningful or more poetic". The readers Father T.T. Kelly, Sgt. Charles Murdock, Rev. Raymond Schultze, and Sister Joyce Wakely were recorded at the Brooklyn College Conservatory. Issued hors commerce, it is an audio CD with accompanying booklet in a jewel box. A pristine copy.. As New/No Jacket - As Issued.
