Andy Saunders}}Towering Inferno was an English experimental music duo of Richard Wolfson and Andy Saunders, notable for their sole album Kaddish, which reflected on The Holocaust.[ Kaddish was released on their own TI Records in 1993, and then globally by Island Records in 1995.[2][3] Wolfson and Saunders composed the music, and Hungarian performance poet Endre Szkárosi contributed the lyrics.[4]]Towering Inferno performed Kaddish in a number of cities between 1994 and 1999, including Vienna, Berlin, Warsaw, Budapest, Moscow and Melbourne.[2][3][4] A London performance of the work in 1995 was broadcast live on BBC Radio 3.[2] The Daily Telegraph said that Towering Inferno was "one of the most original and provocative performance-art bands of the 1990s", and described Kaddish as "a shocking and unforgettable piece".[9] Wolfson died in February 2005, but Saunders, with Chris Cutler, Jah Wobble, Bob Drake, Dave Kerman, Glyn Perrin, Greg Skerman and others, began working on a second Towering Inferno album that had been started before Wolfson's death.[10] Discography- Kaddish (1993, CD, Island Records)[11][12]
