Composer Kevin Keller enjoys composing in traditional forms, and combines classical techniques with electronics to produce a unique sound of ambient music.
His musical vision is “to combine electronic sound as part of the live musician/compositional tapestry.”
I recently had the opportunity to spend some time with Kevin, discussing his background, compositional style and a recent album simply titled “Ambient Chamber Music.” Critic Colin Clarke writes “If ever there was a composer to take the idea of “ambient” music and transform it into music that is at once background and yet, when one places attention on it, becomes like a sequence of jewels, it is Kevin Keller.”
I hope you enjoy our chat, as well as some clips from the album below.
Yours in good music,
