Nublu Orchestra w/ Kudu & Brazilian Girls playing Bowery
Nublu is coming to Bowery Ballroom:
"with this recording nublu, in its fourth year as an alternative music venue here on new york city's lower east side presents its eponymous orchestra under the ubiquitous baton of renowned conductionist lawrence d. "butch" morris. known for his method of composing in real time through a system of signals of his invention that allows him to organize a vocabulary of sound and rhythm coaxed extemporaneously from an orchestra into coherent compositions as they are imparted (much like skywriting, where puffs of seemingly indiscriminate smoke become language under the amazed eye, or action painting), mr.morris herein directs a protean assembly culled from the personnel of various nublu repertory bands such as wax poetic, love trio, kudu and brazilian girls.Tickets are on sale for "Nublu Orchestra Conducted by Butch Morris plus Kudu / Love Trio & Brazilian Girls" @ Bowery Ballroom in NYC on February 14, 2007. There's a video of Nublu Orchestra on YouTube.what ensues is a genre-bending landscape of collaborative composition that at times brings to mind the free jazz collaborations of ornette coleman and eric dolphy, while at others that electronic music of oliver messien or scriabin seasoned with more than a hint of funk. imagine all the serialists under one tent with george russell. –john farris, nyc

the Nublu scene is probably one of the most legitimate, vibrant and progressive scenes in New York City right now. these guys deserve so much more attention than they get.
