by John Alden Carpenter (Author), George Herriman (Illustrator), Howard Pollack (Introduction)
This is the first single-volume publication of both the out-of-print original and revised versions of KrazyKat,
a unique "jazz pantomime" for piano. Based on George Herriman's hugely
influential newspaper comic strip that chronicled the adventures of a
lovelorn feline, this comic production represents a landmark in
American music. The seldom-staged work debuted in 1922 at New York
City's Town Hall, and a 1940 revival employed the revised edition.
John
Alden Carpenter's score abounds in lyric warmth, harmonic charm, and
rhythmic vitality. He created this unusual theatrical work for a ballet
company headed by a former Ballets Russes
performer. Cartoonist Herriman designed the production's scenery and
costumes, and he drew a series of madcap illustrations that are
reproduced in this edition. Jazz lovers, collectors of rare music, and
intermediate- to advanced-level pianists will want a copy of this
facsimile publication, which features the composer's original Program
Notes and an illuminating Introduction.
