A Brief History of Max Kutner
Max
Kutner is a guitarist, composer and instructor originally from Las
Vegas, NV. As an instrumentalist, Max's focus is on new works for the
electric guitar as well the promotion of electric guitar in new
performance settings. His current concert programs feature radical
restructurings of older works from all musical epochs utilizing new
technologies as an extension of the original intent of composers, as
well as avenues for improvisation. As a composer, Max translates
several of his non-musical passions: namely literature and
architecture, into a distinctly singular musical language that is
neither strictly exclusive or accessible to performers. His
compositions have been featured in showcases at CalArts and the Wulf,
television station KCET and radio stations KPFK (Los Angeles, CA), FRSC
(Santa Cruz, CA), KCBS (Seattle), KBOO (Portland, OR), KMHD (Portland,
OR), WFMU (Newark, NJ), KXLU (Los Angeles, CA), WVUD (Newark, DE), WCBN
(Ann Arbor, MI), KSDS (San Diego, CA) and KUNR (Reno, NV).
