Electro-Magnetic Trans-Personal Orchestra Bennett leads the nine-piece Electro-Magnetic Trans-Personal Orchestra here in four original compositions for improvising orchestra using his notational system for structured improvisation. The music is a fresh approach to the concept of large improvising ensemble that challenges without offending either your ears or sensibilities.
