Event Details
The Heavy Metal Work Orchestra is the first presentation of its kind. The Orchestra consists of a 12-piece computer controlled ensemble of power tools and appliances hijacked to perform a 25 minute composition. Acclaimed trumpeter Scott Tinkler and pianist Adrian Klumpes will accompany this bizarre new ensemble. This new ensemble is made possible by a revolutionary new instrument created by Frederick Rodrigues, this instrument the DeMiXerphone allows composers and musicians to have precise control over the pitch timbre and rhythmic potential of almost any electrical appliance. This showcase performance is the public debut of the DeMiXerphone, as well as presenting the Heavy Metal Work Orchestra composition; this series gives potential collaborators a chance to see the DeMiXerphone in action.
