Show Description
Shep used this piece quite often as an expression of 'horror' during one of the stories he would tell. In 1959 Shep did an eulogy to George Antheil on one of his shows

• Follow up note from Paul Lehrman 11/6/2003 Our first production run of the Ballet mecanique CD sold out, but we have now done a second batch, and they're flying out the door (well, power walking, anyway). Best of all, you can now order CDs directly online from my Ballet mecanique Web site, http://Antheil.org, using secure credit card payment through those clever folks at Paypal. Get the CD that the Boston Globe called, "a party record for technophiles, but just about everyone else will have fun too!"...that CD Review called , "A hell of a racket, exciting and brutal at the same time!"..and which The Wire called "This awesome blast from the past"! It also includes groundbreaking pieces for percussion and electronics by John Cage & Lou Harrison, Richard Grayson, Amadeo Roldan, and that "delerious" (the Globe again) arrangement for 16 player pianos of the finale from Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony. Order the CD direct at http://www.antheil.org/CDframe.html. The price is $16, plus $2 per order for first-class mailing. (US and Canada only -- overseas orders please inquire). Or you can get it through EMF media, Amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, or your favorite record store (if it's still in business). All best, Paul
