“89 VI 8

c. 1:42 - 1:52 AM

Paris

Encore”

from

“Poem for Chairs, Tables, Benches, etc.”

(1960)

 

Performance directed by

La Monte Young

 

Officially released on Tellus # 24

Harvestworks - 1990 NYC Cassette

FluxTellus

 

Note : there is an alternate or possibly extended and remixed

version of this performance also floating around.

It is over 15 minutes long.

Perhaps it was the first version performed at this Paris show (as the title suggests)

as opposed to the released Fluxus “Encore” performance version.

 

MELA site has this listed as starting at 1:45 and ending at 1:52 AM,

which appears to be in error as that is only 7 minutes

and this recording is approximately 10 minutes long with audible applause,

which is at the correct speed (i.e. realistic pitch).
