new house orchestra

An ensemble of emerging musical genius. Composed of individuals whose genius lies not only in their ability to express themselves in the genre in which they were trained but in their unique ability and willingness to create music that lies outside of “genre” and inside the present moment, with a joyful and careful abandon.

“House is present for her music, not as an accompaniment or conveyance of formulas and conventions, but as a spirit who inheres and vivifies forms and expectations.” (DUO)
