Announcing A Very Awesöme Video Premiere…
Our amazing collaborators - Music In Place - are proud to present their newest video production, Unknown Tomorrows featuring members of Awesöme Orchestra Collective today at 12pm PST on their YouTube channel!
This 30-minute musical documentary follows Oakland-based composer/performer ONIKHO and members of Awesöme Orchestra Collective as they collaborate on three new arrangements of ONIKHO's original compositions. Using interviews and behind-the-scenes footage of rehearsals and recording, the film shows you—from idea to execution—what it takes to bring these thrilling songs to life, and celebrates the joy of playing music together again after the "lost year" of the pandemic.
