Polymorphic Orkestra

Polymorphic Orkestra is an electro acoustic art music ensemble that produces improvised music using a mix of traditional instruments, media technology, audio FX and pre-recorded audio stem data. Although our music is free in form, we are not overtly atonal. Our music is rhythmic and melodic and constructed during performance requiring a great deal of inter-ensemble focus and musical awareness. Each performance is a journey with no set pieces or tunes as such. Generally, our performances are one long set with no breaks. The ensemble members are, Ed Goyer – Vibraphone, Mallet Kat, Percussion, Ed Rodrigues – Drums, iPad, Midi Guitar, Audio samples, Percussion, Lee McIver – Trumpet, Flugelhorn, Laptop, FX, Audio data. Given the style of music we create our opportunities for live performance is moderate in any given year. We generally perform around four times per year in Sydney and occasionally interstate. Although we do not consider ourselves to be a Jazz ensemble, we have performed a number of times at SIMA, Foundry 616, Kinetic Jazz and in Melbourne for the Melbourne Jazz Co-op as well as concert performances at the City Recital Hall for Extended Play 2019, NIDA studio and the Darling Quarter Theatre. Individually the members of Polymorphic Okestra are well respected artists active in contemporary new music, jazz, world music and can occasionally be found in the orchestra pit or in commercial recording sessions.  Polymorphic Orkestra have released 4 albums through Bamboozle music which are all available for download or streaming from your preferred provider.  polymorphicorkestra.com
