| THE ORCHESTRA
MEETS THE PRESS |
MARCH 12 2008:
The Toronto
Star published a great review of Truth in the Dark today:
"There
are
performers around the world who demolish conventional wisdom
by proving there doesn't have to be a chasm between classical and pop,
and you can write and perform intelligently without resorting to sonic
abstraction. Toronto's Parkdale Revolutionary Orchestra is a shining
example of that approach in this 12-track debut..."
Check out this complete review, and all the
other nice things that have
been written about us, in the
press

What's
All This Then?! is the Parkdale Revolutionary
Orchestra's new
podcast show. We'll be exploring the work of Toronto musicians
who push the boundries of convention - not just by the nature of their
music, but by where and how they choose to present their work.
What's All This
Then?! is about music, but it's also about the ideas behind the music:
how creative people interact with our changing culture; how their work
has evolved; and what they're trying to achieve.
Session no.5 - Mike Smith
April 29 2008
Featuring Mike Smith from the band
Muskox. This session is a discussion of non-jazz instrumental
music and how groups working in this exciting new medium interact with
Toronto music scene. Mike talks about what he's trying to achieve
musically with this ensemble and some of the problems associated with
making quiet music in bars. Also: three weird things that have
happened to Ben this week at three different shows.
