Modern classically trained musicians playing my music.
Richard L. Ortiz is a Chicago-land composer, guitarist, and music typesetter (printing out sheet music for people that have handwritten music). Rich earned a BM in composition from Valparaiso University where he studied with Dr. Dennis Friesen-Carper and an MM in composition from the Chicago College of Performing Arts where he studied wth Dr. Stacy Garrop. Rich's music has been called fresh and exciting and he has recieved several honors, awards, and commissions. In his compositions, Rich hopes to find that happy medium between metal, punk, electronica and orchestral music writing within the chamber music setting.
Rich has also been playing guitar for nearly two decades experimenting with many genres including punk, metal, grindcore, hardcore, classic rock, blues, jazz and latin with a focused study of classical guitar throughout his undergrad and graduate schooling. All these genres inspire and influence Rich's compositions while he strives to create a unique voice.
I am interested in connecting and working with 'new music' performers, theatre, dance, and film people. If you are interested in anything on this site or my main homepage www.rlomusic.com, or have ideas for a new project, please contact me.
Sound waves: turning voices. Quarteto vocal em ondas semi-controladas. Absurdo local e a periferia histórica. O "real" nasce da linguagem no preciso momento da percepção & feedback.

A alavanca puxa o tronco caído, verme latente a três dimensões, que se dissemina pelos poros que assombram beijos de cores disformes que se afastam. Anjos supremos diletantes em esforço anunciam a queda fusil de tempos novos lestos alheios de antas vazias. Nervocide beija o amante morto em furo.
