In this week’s Philadelphia Weekly: a preview of Vocal Tracts, a night of experimental voice-oriented music; and a review of Charlie Haden’s Rambling Boy.

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that from here forward, I’d be posting these PW items on a weekly basis. Well, funny story. Two days before my move back to New York, news came from PW that they were eliminating their entire freelance budget. Everyone’s fired.
All music copy will now be written in-house, by folks who won’t earn a dime more for their troubles. I’ll have an online feature on Anthony Braxton in early October, but beyond that, the future is limited. Perhaps I picked the right time to leave Philly, although the ripples of the financial crisis are sure to reach us wherever we go.
