Wostheinrich & Motzer at the Soundscapes Concert Series
CONCERT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Sunday, September 30, the Soundscapes Concert Series returns to the
Nazareth Center for the Arts with Bernhard Wostheinrich and Tim Motzer
from Germany and Philadelphia, respectively.
BERNHARD WOSTHEINRICH: Bernhard leads his own solo project "The
Redundant Rocker" and his main collaborator is Markus Reuter (in
CENTROZOON). He has also worked with Ian Boddy, Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock,
No-Man singer Tim Bowness, Thorsten Niestrath, and Synapscape's Philipp
Münch.
Bernhard elicits meaning from abstraction in electronic music and
painting. He has studied graphic design and has created an eclectic body
of work in both graphics and music. Using a compositional approach akin
to his work as a visual artist, Bernhard usually begins by improvising
abstract sonic structures which are subsequently developed into an
increasingly detailed aural picture.
TIM MOTZER: Based in Philadelphia, this guitarist and composer finds
infinite joy in diversity. His output as a leader and sideman
crisscrosses multiple musical universes, including jazz, fusion, prog,
hip-hop, soul, electronica, and the avantgarde. Motzer gets to explore
these genres and the intersections between them via his ubiquitous
presence in the wildly deep and varied Philly scene, where he can be
found working with the likes of DJ/Producer King Britt, spoken
word/hip-hop artist Ursula Rucker, and jazz-fusion bassist Jamaaladeen
Tacuma. He also traverses manifold territories through the many albums
released on his own 1k Recordings label, including the expansive,
laidback song forms of Nucultures, the crunchy jazz-funk of Jazzheads,
and the solo soundscapes of his Tilomo alias.
The Soundscapes Concert Series is the concert companion to the Galactic
Travels radio program on WDIY-FM and to Thought Radio on WMUH-FM and
presents electronic music to the Lehigh Valley. This is the concert
series that presented Broekhuis, Keller & Schonwalder (Germany), Wave

Bernhard Wosteinrich (Germany), Robert Rich (California), vidnaObmana
(Belgium), The Ministry of Inside Things (Philadelphia), Richard
