Splitter Orchester combines the awesome collective power of 24 of Berlin’s most consistently creative, self motivated and conceptually optimistic musicians.
The Orchester is not just an investigation into aesthetics, but a fully engaged dialog about metaphor, personality, society and the raw power of sound.
Like every group of musicians, habits exist, and assumptions are made – our work is about breaking these down, looking at the potential of every idea, relationship and desire, and genuinely opening a dialog about what improvisation is – living, breathing, fully committed spontaneity.
The group is a construct of jazz musicians, new music composers, instrument builders, virtuosos, dilettantes and autodidacts
Gregor Hotz, Clare Cooper and Clayton Thomas have chosen these 24 musicians from the enormous pool of Berlin based creative artists, because of their common commitment to a personal path. They are all artists working on discovering their own unique music.
By committing to extended collaboration on a major scale, this group of outstanding artists may truly experience and present an unprecedented music.
