Michael Atherton [AUS]: UtiLity HoRn GrOove

The Australian public in particular has long had a love affair with the humble ute. However not even the Italian futurist composers of the 1920s would have conceived of the riotous melange of musical and 'non-musical' sounds that make up Michael Atherton's innovative work, UtiLity HoRn Groove.

Score for five utes, DJ, saxophone, double bass and dancers, this work crosses every conceivable musical boundary in an exhaustive exploration of vehicular sensation.
