Music for Egon Schiele

A score for a dance and theater piece, recorded in five days.
Rachel's, 1996

The Cleveland Scene review notes that "Mime Van Osen" is dedicated to Schiele's relationship with Erwin Van Osen, a fellow member of the Viennese underground. On March 14, 2000 the trio played the full album in order at Speak in Tongues in Cleveland, with "Mime Van Osen" and "Second Family Portrait" singled out. We found no chart history, and nothing about the specific YouTube version.
