ERICH KORY

CELLIST / COMPOSER / ARRANGER



email: info@cellovision.com

website: www.cellovision.com

Born 1956, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA


In solo performance or mixed media collaborations, Erich Kory presents the cello as a fused electro-acoustic experience. His associations with musicians from Bernstein to Sting have inspired him to develop an imaginative and personal style. Supporting his style is extensive classical training and 35 years of performance experience. Erich Kory plays on an asymmetric acoustic cello designed and built for him by Christophe Landon, implemented by several electronic effects.
