Orchestronics®is television and film composer/visual
artist
Joe Wiedemann, and a wide
variety of acoustic and electronic sounds. The
string sounds are real. The woodwind sounds are real.All the standard orchestral
components are samples of real acoustic instruments, played by
professional musicians..Electronic instruments have meshed well with
orchestras through thousands of film scores, but they are rarely invited
to the classical stage.It's time for the classical orchestra to
evolve, and welcome new sounds and new music.
Orchestronics goes
Beyond-Classical in style and sound. Many other artists record
electronic realizations of standard classical repertoire, but
composer Joe Wiedemann's music is all new and original.
OrOrchestronics®i(Or'-kes-TRON-iks) is the all-inclusive ensemble. The orchestra we know, is
a collection of emotional button-pushing instruments-- powerful brass, romantic
strings, a sexy oboe, nerdy clarinet, airy
flutes...
Orchestronics®
adds to that collection of rich sounds with new musicians, to create a nearly
limitless, and evolving ensemble.
New Classical Music Composer Joe Wiedemann (ASCAP) integrates expressive, new
custom sounds into this versatile group.
Film and
game music have explored this relationship, but New Classical marries
acoustic and electronic instruments in a way that stands alone, with or
without visuals.. With influences like: Mason Bates, John Adams, Jean Michel Jarre, Alan Parsons, Mike Oldfield,
Jan Hammer,
Kebu, Kraftwerk, Yanni, and Wendy
Carlos, electronic instruments have moved closer to the classical stage.
