   About RIVER COW ORCHESTRA




Kansas City’s tradition of jazz innovation continues with the amazing
~ RIVER COW ORCHESTRA ~

Every “song” here was created on the spot,
without charts, dubs, retakes, or notated music.
RCO takes a Zen approach to creating music.
Creating something that will never be heard again, anywhere.
River Cow Orchestra sets the music free.

We welcome you to experience stimulating MOO-sic without rules.
~ RIVER COW ORCHESTRA ~ free the music!

"...They create very open and wide structures and take time to develop things. Their improvisations originate on stage or in studio without much pretension. This results in very captivating music that is never in a hurry and working very consequent to its goal..It's just there.” Dolf Mulder, Vital Weekly, Netherlands
