Tetuzi Akiyama / Splinter Orchestra
Tetuzi Akiyama (Japan) is a highly unique and experimental guitarist heavily applying free improvisation and noise. He specializes in creating music with elements of both primitivism and realism by connecting his own aspirations, in a minimal and straightforward way, to the special instrumental qualities of the guitar.
Splinter is a radically inclusive large-scale orchestra that has been a forum for improvising for well over 100 exploratory musicians and sound artists living in or passing through Sydney for over 2 decades. This will be the Orchestra's first public outing for some time.
