Black Page Orchestra, founded 2014 in Vienna, is an ensemble for radical and uncompromising music of current times. The name derives from Frank Zappa’s composition the black page, a piece which score is due to the high density of notes and musical events nearly a black paper. Beside this clear aesthetical approach the ensemble focuses on compositions using electronics, video and different technologies in an artistic context as well as compositions that go beyond a conventional classical concert situation due to their performative character.
Organised as a collective, an experimental and varied programme is an essential concern of the ensemble.
