Arnold Dreyblatt
Arnold Dreyblatt is an American Minimalist composer for whom the idea ‘cult’ seems to be invented. His body of work explores new forms of transcendental rhythmic minimalism, played on prepared instru- ments—like a double bass with piano strings. Just as his visual art, Dreyblatt’s music works as a ‘rethinking of identity, history, culture, and memory’.
His c.v. reads as an impressive who’s who in the minimalist canon: student of La Monte Young and Pauline Oliveros; and records on legendary labels like Hat Hut, Tzadik, Table of Elements and most re- cently Oren Ambarchi’s Black Truffle label.
