While William Eggleston needs little introduction as a master of color photography, few are aware of his fi ne ability as a pianist. Musik (Vinyl), consisting of two vinyl LPs, is only the second, and most elaborate, publication of his musical recordings to date.
Performed in the 1980s on his Korg OW/1 FD Pro keyboard synthesizer and stored on fl oppy disks since, revealed here are pieces by EgglestonÆs favorite composers across genresùfrom Beethoven and Chopin to Gilbert and Sullivan, from jazz to reggaeùas well as improvisations of considerable brio. Accompanied by a booklet of photos showing Eggleston while playing, Musik (Vinyl) reveals hitherto unknown facets of his creativity, and is part of SteidlÆs plan to publish EgglestonÆs complete works: his books, music and a future release of his 1974 video Stranded in Canton.
