Electro-Magnetic Trans-Personal Orchestra CD Cover


Saxophonist and composer Aaron Bennett has been performing music professionally as an active part of the jazz and improvised music communities for over 15 years.  Born in Long Beach California, he was introduced to jazz and the avant-garde as a young boy by his mother who was both an abstract painter and avid jazz fan.  Mr. Bennett has studied music at Cal State Long Beach, where he received his B.A. in music performance at at California Institute of the Arts where he studied composition with Wadada Leo Smith adn received his M.F.A. in music.   Besides Western Classical Music and Jazz, he has studied the music of West Africa, Indonesia, South and North India, and traditional Japanese Gagaku music.  He has performed throughout the US and Europe with Wadada Leo Smith, Peter Kowald, John Butcher, Marco Eneidi, Henry Kaiser, Francis Wong, Oluyemi Thomas, Donald Robinson and others.

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.

One of the more encouraging recordings to come through our offices in quite a while.  It comes highly recommended for deep listening and focused enlightened sensibilities.
