Robert Rich live in Philadelphia at The Gatherings Concert
Series - 22 April 2006

Robert Rich's music creates a world of primordial mystery and
intense beauty. Electronics merge seamlessly with primitive
instruments in lush atmospheres. Above it all float melodies
played on bamboo flute and steel guitar. With the fabric of this
hypnotic journey, Rich weaves a connection between human
cultures both past and present, near and far.

With over two dozen albums, Robert Rich has helped define the
genres of ambient music, dark-ambient, tribal and trance, yet his
music remains hard to categorize. Part of his unique sound
comes from using homemade acoustic and electronic
instruments, microtonal tunings, computer-based signal
processing, chaotic systems and feedback networks.

Spacemusic pioneer Robert Rich returns to the remarkable
setting of St. Mary's Hamilton Village and The Gatherings
Concert Series on Saturday 22 April 2006. For complete details,
