COTFG: Go Organic Orchestra + Reaganometry

COTFG: Go Organic Orchestra + Reaganometry

Presented by Church of the Friendly Ghost at The North Door

Adam Rudolph will be back in Austin to continue growing the Go Organic Orchestra Austin exploration! In the past 2 years, COTFG has helped coordinate a group of 20-35 musicians from Austin’s improvised/world/jazz/classical/experimental music community to perform the Go Organic method at Salvage Vanguard Theater (2013) and The Blanton Museum (2014).

For the past three decades composer, improviser and percussionist Adam Rudolph has performed extensively in concert throughout North & South America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Rudolph has been hailed as “a pioneer in world music” by the NY Times and “a master percussionist” by Musician magazine. He has released 25 recordings under his own name, featuring his compositions and percussion work. Rudolph composes for his ensembles Moving Pictures and Organic Orchestra, an 18 to 54 piece group for which he has developed an original music notation and conducting system. He has taught and conducted hundreds of musicians in the Organic Orchestra concept; most recently in Sicily, Naples, Oslo, and Istanbul, NYC and LA. Rudolph recently premiered his opera The Dreamer, based on the text of Friedreich Nietzsche’s “The Birth of Tragedy”. http://www.metarecords.com/adam.html#anchorbio
