Our guest for this episode is Bill McKenna, a musician who splits his time between Washington DC and Baltimore, Maryland. He chose to work on the first segment of the river, its source, where the fresh water flow between the Alps of the Voralberg and Tyrol regions. The material provided by us included photos of the idyllic area, a time-lapse video made with satellite images, and the field recording of a ski-lift engine. The creative workflow Before, and after, the interview I had a conversation via email with Bill and so many interesting things came up that I need to share them here, in his own voice: My background as a singer/songwriter often dictates how I start my work, but my affinity for experimental music helps to push my compositions into odd or unusual places. For this composition, The Lech Waltz, I created a simple structure. And yet, it was missing something. That’s when I decided to push the entire song a minute or more down the timeline, adding a number of layers and then playing without a click track, mixing in some long drones and melodies. It’s become one of my favorite parts of the composition, sounding like what a river feels like. I was thrilled to hear about Salma Caller’s idea of sharing small musical moments with other composers on this project. It evokes the connectivity of a river (https://artmusicscience.substack.com/...) that changes with time. I used a bell-like sound from Giuseppe Cordaro, a sample that I turned into a random, descending 4 note melody. From Salma, a rowing noise became a percussive element. The original field recording (Segment 1) of the Lech River by Riccardo Fumagalli was turned into a lovely, noisy beat. I operate in an intuitive fashion but especially with music-making. I decided at the outset that I wanted to construct the song in 6/8. Nothing unusual. It’s sort of like a fast 3/4 time signature but it has more of a rocking motion. So, when I came close to finishing the recording, I realized exactly what the song should be called: The Lech Waltz. It feels perfect because the area where the river originates is in Austria and it’s a tributary of the Danube in Germany. During the creation of the music, I was working on another project involving public domain footage and I stumbled across some film footage from 1930 of a river in Germany. No, it’s not the Lech, but it felt like another lovely coincidence which meant that I had to marry my song with the archival film. You can watch it here: Who is Bill McKenna? Bill McKenna is a video editor and producer known for producing stories about artists and musicians. He’s won some minor awards at major moments as a scrappy musician, a shambolic filmmaker and as a video editor, including the time he had to put on an ill-fitting suit to get his picture taken with Barack Obama at the White House. His absurdly long career stretches back to when video heads moved across tape at 1000 inches per second, and video facilities were filled with cigarette smoke and the smell of stale beer. He became a freelancer for a decade or so but then he accepted a full-time job with BBC News around 2008 and he still doesn’t know if it was a good idea or not. It’s been an amazing journey especially when you consider that McKenna was once a young punk who walked around with a jacket emblazoned with buttons which included slogans that would certainly get him fired from his job today.
