Mythical, innovative and deeply groovy, Umi No Uzu (meaning ‘stirring the oceans’) brings together traditional Japanese court music known as Gagaku, with jazz and hip hop.
The Australian Art Orchestra has been commissioning, performing, and recording music for over 25 years, from notated works with master composers to free-wheeling visions of spontaneous energy that harness the power of collective improvisation. The AAO works with a wide range of musicians and our recordings are regularly released on both acclaimed international labels and on our distinguished imprint, AAO Recordings.
