ニューヨーク・タイムズのインスタグラム(nytimes) - 9月9日 06時20分

If New York is a place of scary, monumental meetings, Hal Willner, 61, has made a career of turning them into art. You may not know his name, but for nearly 4 decades he has bent and shaped the dimensions of almost-popular music, working with performers as disparate as Lou Reed and the Armadillo String Quartet in extravagant, cross-genre tributes to the music of Thelonious Monk or Kurt Weill, the @Disney songbook or the poetry of Allen Ginsberg. And since 1980, he has also chosen music for the skits on @Saturday Night Live. But “weird isn’t in right now,” Hal says. He continues: “I don’t know what inspires people now,” he said. “Maybe they don’t need to be inspired in that way. Do these last 2 generations have heroes? I’m not sure they do. I go to Avenue A now and listen to what people are talking about, and it isn’t culture. When John Lennon died I couldn’t go to work for 2 days. I wonder if they have someone that they look at like that — an author, a poet, whatever. Those are people who made us what we are.” @andrewwhitey took this portrait of #HalWillner in his Manhattan studio.
