About this event
Gallery Aferro is thrilled to present The Boston Typewriter Orchestra, LIVE! for one night only in Newark, specifically our main gallery. You have never seen anything like this, we promise.
BTO is a collective endeavor which engages in rhythmic typewriter manipulation, combined with voice elements: performance, comedy and satire. They aim to entertain the masses while providing an outlet for the creative urges of its members. The latest rotation of Gallery Aferro's Elevator Music project features an original track composed just for the project by BTO.
BTO has released several singles and five albums, the most recent of which is a collection of remixes entitled Delegation. The ensemble members included/includes: Derrik Albertelli, Jeff Breeze, James Brockman, Alex Holman, Chris Keene, Erik Lindahl, Steve Mazzulli, Jay O’Grady, Brendan Quigley, and Chris Webb. Other collaborators include Brian Dewan and Elizabeth Donovan.
