Notes

notes from http://www.diamandagalas.com/
Diamanda has never performed ALL THE WAY in public. This live recording of Diamanda Galas on voice and piano was done in NYC at CMS rehearsal studios in February 2006. It was the first and only take. Blaise Dupuy used vocal distortion and short delays on the piano, at Diamanda's request. Postproduction and mixing was done in February 2010 by D E F in Paris. Diamanda and D E F enjoy a long-distance working relationship where each settles in for a 48 hour patch and D E F's mixes go back and forth from Paris to NYC. "It is like being alive," Diamanda states.

The photo is the Wolfmoon, taken by Richard Morrison on January 29 2010. When Diamanda first saw it, she felt it had a lot in common with her decades' long interest in this song as an all or nothing anthem. With hovering Mars making the Moon ever brighter, we at Intravenal Sound Operations feel that ALL THE WAY speaks for us. There is no greater love than that which burns us and then passes without remorse.

Lyrics by Sammy Cahn. Music by James Van Heusen.
