	MIMEO and John Tilbury - The Hands of Caravaggio - Stylus Magazine
		Throughout the work, Tilbury’s performance is bound by his instrument’s historical constraints — his purely acoustic piano lacks the amplification and infinite capacity for sonic alchemy possessed by the orchestra, thus limiting his powers of equal participation.
		Yet the orchestra largely reins in its capacity for destruction and Tilbury, in spite of his apparent vulnerability, never buckles beneath its pressures — and the interactions that arise thereof are nothing short of stunning.

	Keith Rowe and John Tilbury - Duos For Doris - Stylus Magazine
		Performed in the memory of John Tilbury’s recently deceased mother and recorded at the peak of pre-war tensions, this first duo collaboration between the longtime AMM partners carries with it a singular profound gravity wrought from the will of two of the genre’s most searching artists.
		Tilbury’s muted sonorities gather into storm clouds near the piece’s midpoint, culminating in a searing display of tape-saturating crashes from pounded keys and slashing feedback ruptures.
		What Rowe and Tilbury have crafted is a document brimming with rare detail and thought provoking turns, moving outlines of complex intellectual and emotional states that induce all the subtle and stirring insights associated with paradox.

	Bagatellen: Rowe/Tilbury - Duos for Doris
		Tilbury warmed up by playing some Chopin, a little Schoenberg (a quote from which he interjected into the proceedings, much to Rowe’s amusement, in one of the improvisations not used for the final release) and a few English folk songs.
		Tilbury begins by rubbing a drumstick on the brass inner frame of the piano, treating it as purely percussion for the first six or seven minutes.
		Tilbury has placed nails, dowels and metallic balls on his strings, generating gamelan-like sounds from his keyboard when he’s not attacking the piano’s body with drumstick or fist.

	John Tilbury ‘CORNELIUS CARDEW PIANO MUSIC 1959-70.’ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Tilbury, who was one of Cardew’s closest musical associates, collaborates in Cardew’s search for a creative relationship with musician and materials and succeeds magnificently.
		Tilbury is here joined by Eddie Prévost in a spacious reading of the sparse and reticent final pages, in homage to Cardew as performer, who often used prepared piano, percussion and found radio sounds in his own versions of Treatise in the 1960s.
		John Tilbury’s playing of all these pieces reflects an intense involvement with and dedication to Cardew’s music over a period of more than 30 years, including the experience of having worked very closely with him in the 1960s and ‘70s.

		At the heart of the concept of the classical and Romantic concerto is the idea of creative friction between soloist and orchestra, on a macro (formal) or micro (motivic) level, in conjunction with the idea that the work should be a showcase of sorts for the soloist's virtuosity (hence the tradition of incorporating a cadenza).
		Tilbury's mastery of the piano may be evidence, but there are several lengthy passages where his contributions are subsumed into the surrounding sonic plasma rather than engaging the other musicians in contrapuntal dialogue.
		Of course, apart from Tilbury's florid virtuosity and crystalline arpeggios, it's almost impossible to tell who's doing what: the concert itself was apparently fraught with technical problems (with the sound system and Tilbury's piano), and several of the participants expressed reservations about the performance at the time.

	Mimeo/John Tilbury - The Hands of Caravaggio (Erstwhile)
		The dominant instrumental voice is therefore that of the paired pianos, lending unprecedented clarity and perspective to the tempest of massed electronics.
		Years of playing alongside Rowe in AMM have tuned Tilbury to the inexhaustible grainy subtleties of Rowe's tabletop guitar technique and electro-acoustic shadings, and so Mimeo's surging, seething conflation of extemporized electronic sound is less a cacophonous challenge than an even grander sonic setting for his singular pianistic prowess.
		Tilbury tackles this star turn with consummate skill, drawing the most desirable devices from jazz, Erik Satie, and especially his own profound appreciation of Morton Feldman.

	THE TERMITE CLUB \| REVIEWS \| TILBURY ROWE
		For the uninitiated, Keith Rowe and John Tilbury are improv legends, both with roots in the seminal UK group AMM.
		The acoustics of the church were a perfect setting for the duo as their set began with Rowe's fanned guitar and Tilbury's huge booming tone clusters creating an ominous rumble.
		John and Keith took a bow, thus ending what I'm sure will be one of my musical highlights of the year.

	MIMEO with John Tilbury: The Hands of Caravaggio: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Tilbury is the sole acoustic instrumentalist on the recording, cementing the theoretical approach: exploring the piano concerto form.
		The instrument maintains a ruling clarity throughout, though at times its pitches and preparations can only be found in what Tilbury aptly describes as "the nooks and crannies in which their unique resonances find subtle expression." Rowe and Tilbury are particularly clear-headed on what they hope The Hands of Caravaggio will achieve.
		Cor Fuhler is used as a foil to Tilbury's immense talent, simultaneously playing the inside of the same piano that Tilbury is attempting to twist sounds from.

		John Marcangelo had previously met Laurie Baker (bass guitar), and together with John Tilbury (piano) they formed Peoples Liberation Music at the end of 1972.
		John has had a long association with Mike De Albuquerque who together with his wife Jane recently organised a surprise 50th birthday party in Cumbria with much music.
		John has continued to compose and is currently working on a set of variations on themes by the late Cornelius Cardew and an idea for a musical based around the 'Clogger' who inspired the original Clog Dance.

	Untitled Document
		If the music had a rather fragile character, that was rudely challenged by two ear-splitting screeches from the electronics, which may or may not have been entirely intentional, and by Tilbury's scraping a drumstick across the piano's lid.
		At times tonight, he seemed to be exploring the difference between the extremes of a full-bodied tone and pitchless air, investigating different enunciations of the same sound.
		Characteristically, the bassist's bodily involvement with his instrument is total, and yet the impressive physicality of his music is matched by the mobility of his mind; Edwards never seems to repeat himself or resort to bass idiomatics, and communicates with the other musicians by striving to reinvent his instrument with every passing second.

		In July 2001 the Vienna improviser/composer/producer Werner Dafeldecker and Franz Hautzinger invited the Japanese electronic artist Sachiko M and the dean of British new music, John Tilbury, to Vienna to record together (the recording sessions were coupled with a performance of the quartet at the Nickeldorf Konfrontationen).
		They are her sounds that organize and burst open the performances, that give an improvisational interaction a sharp contour, so sharp that the music nearly becomes piercing and overdrawn.
		John Tilbury has been a fixed member of the legendary improvisation group AMM for over 20 years.

		In addition, Riley’s support of Tilbury (when the latter is allowed by the others to take to the lead) is generally pretty cogent.
		Tilbury seems the odd man out to me much of the time & there’s a lot of feather ruffling/puffery going on.
		As for the extra-musical environs of the release and what Tilbury's inner circle may have been muttering at the time, never having been initiated into these sorts of mysteries, I'm probably not the best person to ask.

		The trio of John Butcher (saxophones), Thomas Lehn (analogue synth) and Andy Moor (guitar) originally convened for a gig last year in Brussels, since when they have released a fine album, "Thermal" on guitarist Moor's Unsounds imprint, and undertaken a brief tour, of which this was the fourth date.
		Tilbury in particular often sounds almost detached from the delicate groups of notes he inserts into the musical fabric, as if he were stepping back from an unfinished canvas before returning to add tiny dabs of light and colour.
		The fact that the album liner notes (rare for Erstwhile) mention the fact would seem to imply that the musicians themselves have no specific objection to such an interpretation, but were the album titled differently, or not at all, this extraordinary music would not fail to move the attentive listener.

	The Squid's Ear
		Duos for Doris features guitarist Keith Rowe and pianist John Tilbury, two-thirds of the current AMM lineup, but in place of AMM's layers of thick description (an approach nicely summed up by the title of their album Laminal), these duets offer a scrupulous thinness.
		These plans were disrupted by the death of Tilbury's mother Doris at the age of 95, three days before recording was to take place.
		Though it too has several punctuating events and one sharply-jutting peak just before the halfway point, "Olaf"'s overall sound is shaped by Tilbury's use of preparation to turn the piano strings into tuned percussion (unlike most prepared-piano specialists, he mutes rather than augments strings: he seems comparatively uninterested in wilder sounds like buzzes and rattles).
