DVDs available in my store

Makes a fine holiday gift!

Starting today, you will now be able to buy Avant-Garde: Experimental Cinema from 1928-1954 at my online store at www.larrymarotta.com/store.html. This is a neat little set and features my scores for the films The Cage (1947, Sidney Peterson) and Christmas, USA (1949, Gregory J. Markopoulos). There's also a lot of other movies included. Check it out at http://www.kino.com/video/item.php?film_id=865.



The Cage is a re-working of a score that I first performed live at the Wexner Center here in Columbus in 1997. It's a fun movie with a good sense of humor, something you don't often see in avant-garde stuff. Christmas, USA is a newer score for lap steel guitar, which also appears on my first collection of film scores available on Amazon and iTunes through Pimalia. It's the first recording I did on the lap steel, so it was a real challenge.
