Message from the Maestro
Dear Members and Friends
What have you been listening to lately? Whatever is on your playlist, I recommend adding Jacob Collier to the rotation.
Without question, Jacob Collier ought to be considered a Mozart of our generation. He has perfect pitch, plays multiple instruments, sings comfortably in all ranges, is fluent in audio/video technologies, and seems to have a lot of fun! He recently won a Grammy for his arrangement of Moon River - the YouTube video is astonishing in its musical complexity and video coordination. Even more incredible is June Lee’s visual transcription of the arrangement, which accounts for every voice, each tuning system, as well as all the intricate organizations of rhythm.
Take a few minutes to watch these videos and marvel at the scope of Collier’s creativity.
