Oakland Bandemonium is led by Gregg Moore, formerly with Available Jelly (Holland) and Willem Breuker Kollektief (Germany), now living in Northern California. For this concert, Gregg will bring his book of compositions for large ensemble to be played by many great local bay area musicians. The music is a flurry of styles, mostly influenced by the great Eastern European Brass Bands.
For 20 years Gregg Moore has been an avid student of all the forms brass band music has developed in around the world. He was responsible for the first visit to Europe of a representative of the exciting culture of Indian brass bands and has participated in conferences where he has shared his experiences with approaching European band musicians with the brass band cultures of the world. Besides working with community music he has been an important part of the vibrant creative music world of Amsterdam, Holland playing with the world-famous Willem Breuker Kollektief for 6 years and founding the group Available Jelly.
