tweeks69420 The culmination of many years of hard work and endless refinements, the truly massive ENTANGLEMENTING is, to me, the defining statement of Genovese's art to this point. Absolutely incredible.

about

Entanglementing — Sam’s 6th album and 1st opera — is also a film.

Our story takes its initial cues from America’s 20th century bifurcated personality — private wars and public peace, democratic prose and foreign overthrows — and places that tension in the shape of a single man.

His dissonance reaches crisis point.

Don’t expect your average storytelling here.

Welcome to Entanglementing, a narrative experiment in sound and image.

Sam's interests in this ambitious piece lie in generating an idiosyncratic dramatic vocabulary shifting through different forms of “language,” alternately activating the cerebral and more primal modes of experience. Traditional speech drops off into sentences completed with noise. Narrative phrases freely swap words for sounds and images. Changing modalities create expansive emotional and aesthetic leaps.
