Aliens Took My Mom
Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Children from Fort Greene, Brooklyn, ages 3 through 7, influenced by recordings of the Art Ensemble of Chicago and free jazz they heard in a music class, organized their own improvising jazz/classical/avant-garde orchestra.
There’s no editing or overdubs on this recording: it’s exactly what the kids played. They composed and named the pieces with advice from adult composers/performers Katie Down and Dave Soldier.
The music on Aliens Took My Mom tells a story in which an army from outer space invades, destroys all the humans, and eventually succumbs to nuclear bugs and pops.
