Rachel's - Music for Egon Schiele (1996)
«Music for Egon Schiele is the soundtrack to a piece of dance and theater [originally put on in Chicago by the Itinerant Theater Guild] that was based on the life of this controversial Viennese painter. Rachel Grimes composed the music and performed it with two string musicians during the run of the performance. So don't expect the full experimental sound of Handwriting [Rachel’s debut album, which featured 16 musicians including the bands Shellac, Coctails, Rodan, Hula Hoop, and members of two symphony orchestras], this is modern 'chamber' music in its naked essence [only Rachel on piano, Christian Frederickson on viola, and Wendy Doyle on cello]. The songs on Music... try to give musical shape to the life and work of Egon Schiele, the untimely deceased painter from Vienna who linked Gustav Klimt's Jugendstil to Oskar Kokoschka's expressionism around the turn of the century. […] It's remarkable how well the combination of Rachel's music with Schiele's paintings works. This is melancholic yes, but still there's a lot of action in this music as well as there was in Schiele's paintings and life. I don't think there's another 'band' that has managed to describe a painter's work that well in musical terms. Yet another true masterpiece by Rachel's!» (Ultra e-zine)
