i’m a violinist, guitarist from new york….i’ve got 2 film soundtrack projects i need to crack open…definitely supported by a native american orchestra of sorts! i’m really interested in finding piano, electric guitars, string players, drums, electronicals, and bass wind instruments!!!!!!…or any instrument well played!

(PROJECT 1)i’m composing an original score to a silent film from 1918-19, hoping to find an ensemble of 3-5 musicians….looking for those with great chemistry, artistry, improvisational wonder and experimentality!

(PROJECT 2)and i have a score to a silent film that has already been written that requires LESS than 13 people…this one really requires a pianist and drums…..and musicians that can read classical music notation.

BOTH PROJECTS HAVE BUDGETS….but i need to figure out budgets for travel and rehearsals, performances etc. for all players.

……BOTH PROJECTS WILL HAVE GREAT OPPORTUNITIES TO PERFORM!!!! and by great i mean HISTORICALLY AWESOME!!!!!! i mean this!

serious musical applicants needed in the vein of creating a strong native american ensemble for some serious collaborating!!! i wasnt sure where to start my search so that’s why i’m callin this out on myspace. THANK YOU FOR ANY LEADS OR CONTACTS ANY OF YOU MIGHT HAVE. i really need help in finding these people out there who can PLAAAAAAY!!!! THANK YOU!!!
