The New Music Seminar came to Webster Hall this week and I was interested to learn what the artists were working on. In the classical music world, I constantly mention how there is nothing new going on, except some things – and so I made it a point to see if there was any ‘orchestra’ influence happening.

I was happy to learn that the response was very receptive, and there are even a few musicians who are either working with orchestras or have big plans. Two that I learned of were Yonas and Oxzana. The guitar player to OXzana is actually working on an orchestra CD, which I will definitely keep an eye out for.

The lineup also consisted of Margaret Cho, Naughty by Nature, and more. While they mentioned there was “nothing in the pipeline” to work with orchestras, it would be cool to see hiphop/orchestra collab go down with Naughty by Nature. Maybe OPP arranged for orchestra?
