Peter Manning Robinson Performs With His Newly Created Refractor Piano

Award-winning pianist and composer Peter Manning Robinson will enthrall audiences with a stunning aural and visual art experience on Wednesday, October 19, 2016 at MOCA Grand in Downtown Los Angeles: The Refractor Piano Concert at MOCA. Performing live with his invention, The Refractor Piano, Robinson is pioneering a new music form called "refracted music." Without using prerecorded tracks, triggered samples, external sounds, or MIDI instruments, the Emmy and multiple BMI award-winning composer creates a vast spectrum of new musical environments with just a refracted, acoustic piano. Robinson plays "improvised compositions" within the refractions generated by his newly created instrument. The music combines elements of neoclassical composition and jazz improvisation that, when acoustically refracted, produce a truly original and transcendent live music experience.
