| Composer and Artistic Director Adam Rudolph has constructed music using innovative and experimental means without the use of western music notation. Rudolph will conduct the woodwind players through music/letter grids, language themes, Indian Ragas and song forms to create the moods, movement and sonic gestures.
The percussionists have been learning Rudolph’s rhythm concept:"Cyclic Verticalism", whereby polyrhythms (used in African music) are combined with rhythms cycles (used in Indian music). Utilizing these elements in an spontaneous way, elements will weave what Rudolph calls an "audio syncretic music fabric" that serves as a platform for improvisation and self expression. About this approach Rudolph states:
"Using new creative processes and instrumental combinations I hope to create a music that has not been heard before while expressing heartfelt thoughts and feelings."
The Orchestra is made up of many of Los Angeles’ leading performers as well as young developing musicians. "I conceived of the Organic Orchestra as an opportunity to work with many musicians I have not had a chance to perform with before, as well as a workshop environment where I can share with younger musicians some of the knowledge I have received over the years from my mentors." says Rudolph. |
