"Fare Tredici: A Blessing For Korzybski’s Map (From Order To Chaos And Back)"  "Fare Tredici" can be translated as “To Do 13”, which in Italian means “To hit the Jackpot”, or “To Have Big Luck”. I was delighted when I learned of this saying, as it seemed tailor-made for "Halloween Baptizm".  “Fare Tredici” is an overture in reverse (there are varying definitions of “overture” – I am using it in the way that is associated with Romantic-era operas [such as Bizet’s Carmen], as a piece of music, containing contrasting sections, that is played at the beginning of an opera or oratorio, featuring the main musical themes of the work) – literally and figuratively: o Obviously this overture is at the end of "Halloween...", not the beginning. o Less apparent is the fact that each section of the overture is based on a theme from pieces “One...” through “Midnight”, running in reverse order of their original appearance; thus section A12 is based on “Midnight”, section B11 is based on “Eleven...”, etc. o And considerably less noticeable, I took what I perceived as the main theme of each piece (or my favorite section) and played them backwards, but – and this is where the “figuratively” unfolds – backwards was merely a starting point. Not all themes worked perfectly backwards, so pitches, rhythms, arrangements, etc. were modified with artistic license. Additionally, parts were swapped: If in the original piece the 6-string played the melody and the bass played a bassline, then in the overture they traded roles. https://presterjohnmusic.bandcamp.com/track/fare-tredici-a-blessing-for-korzybskis-map-from-order-to-chaos-and-back 1 month 1 week ago.

In 1752, England adopted the Gregorian calendar, which had already been in use in Europe for 170 years. In order to align the dates, England had to lose 11 days, thus Sept. 3 through Sept. 13 were "made to disappear". • • • https://presterjohnmusic.bandcamp.com/track/eleven-days-disappeared • • • For the month of October, to celebrate the one year anniversary of "Halloween Baptizm" by Shawn Persinger is PRESTER JOHN, I am going to be featuring highlights from the CD, books, and artwork portfolios. 1 month 1 week ago.
