CODA is an ensemble like no other. For the past 14 years,
they have mixed their rigorous classical training with the
performance techniques of popular music without sounding
referential or imitative. Their music has been described as
‘art rock’, ‘uplifting cinematic sound-scapes’ and ‘chameleon
pop’. Twice ARIA nominated, this musical collective has
wowed audiences an instrumental
group for many years.
An exciting new change is
happening within CODA. In 2008
they began incorporating vocalists
into their new compositions,
recordings and live performances
and will continue to do so. It is
an exciting new direction in the
group’s evolution.
CODA’s catalogue of music can
see them performing in many
and varied contexts. The group can ‘rock out’ with their
upbeat rock, electronic and vocal driven ‘Tokyo Does the
Charleston’ set but are equally at home on the concert hall
stage performing their more atmospheric, cinematic and and
‘journey’ based compositions. One element binds the group’s
diverse sound: it is their use of stringed instruments and
string-based textures.
Always keeping a keen eye on their visual presentation,
CODA appear onstage wearing a myriad of costumes and
consistently seek to incorporate projected video works and
performances as part of their show.
