ben_grossman ben grossman guelph "Ben Grossman is a busy musician: improviser, studio musician, composer, noisemaker and audio provocateur. He works in many fields, having played on over 100 CDs, soundtracks for film and television, sound design for theatre, installations, work designed for radio transmission, and live performances spanning early medieval music to experimental electronica. Ben's tools of choice are electronics, percussion, and, especially, the hurdy gurdy (Drehleier/vielle à roue), a contemporary electro-acoustic string instrument with roots in the European middle ages. He studied the instrument in Europe and has also studied Turkish music in Istanbul. With an abiding interest in pushing the limits of his instruments and pushing the boundaries of whatever venue or medium in which he works, Ben's solo CD, Macrophone was released in 2007 and features a unique two disc form for simultaneous, aleatoric playback. ben_grossman’s tracks All Saints Day by ben_grossman published on 2020-11-02T01:58:26Z organistrum:prototype excerpt by ben_grossman published on 2020-05-18T01:56:19Z Beastesque by ben_grossman published on 2020-04-12T20:22:17Z Purple Phaze by ben_grossman published on 2020-02-29T01:23:38Z Live at the Guelph Jazz Festival 2019 by ben_grossman published on 2019-10-29T14:12:01Z Solo At Mystery And Wonder by ben_grossman published on 2018-12-15T18:38:23Z Driving by ben_grossman published on 2018-11-15T17:23:38Z Sludge by ben_grossman published on 2017-08-26T16:58:58Z Modular Creep by ben_grossman published on 2017-08-26T16:04:56Z Guitar Meditation by ben_grossman published on 2017-08-26T15:53:02Z
