Zustand: Near fine. First edition. Original concert program for an evening organized by the legendary nightclub with performances by electronic music pioneer Morton Subotnick and New York Pro Musica, under the reassuring oversight of a Consulting Psychologist. The successor to Warhol's Exploding Plastic Inevitable, Brandt's Elec…tric Circus opened in 1967 as "the latest total environment, McLuhanist discotheque," with light shows, jugglers, and acrobats (Newfield). The opening also featured a presentation of Subotnick's "Silver Apples of the Moon," an early work for synthesizer and the first electronic composition commissioned by a record company. Subotnick curated a series of Monday night concerts at the Electric Circus and, at Carnegie Hall in December of 1967, an "Electric Christmas." Electric Easter, the sequel, likewise featured New York Pro Musica. Their inclusion was a suggestion by Dr. Edgar Coons, NYU psychology professor and former student of Virgil Thomson, who had had his mind previously blown by an Electric Circus light and rock show and "for reasons he leaves a bit vague" (Ross) thought an early music ensemble covering The Beatles's "Hello Goodbye" in faux-medieval French would be a good idea. Soul group The Chambers Brothers closed, performing Perusio's "Le grant désir". Critics loved it. 8.5'' x 5.5''. Original green and yellow bifold leaf. Minimal edgewear, very faint creasing. Bright and sharp.
