Splinter Magic: a winter festival with Splinter Orchestra and friends
Splinter Orchestra is curating a 2 day experimental music festival on July 13th-14th 2019
Splinter Orchestra has always been an amorphous being; its shifting roster shaping the resultant music. Every Sunday sees a different subset of Splinter join together to play; this gathering is a weekly refuge for to bond, explore and create something that could be called magical.
Splinter Magic is a two day festival in July featuring subsets of Splinter and Spl-interlopers joining regular members. This event also includes the 'splintstallation'; Splinter Orchestra's mechanised ghost form. We celebrate the wider Splinter community in this titillating banquet of Sydney improvised music.
