Rh+ creates experimental music and video in the form of multimedia concerts - performances.
Sound of blood in born out of the interaction of Rh factors, computers, samplers, synthesizer and
traditional instruments such as flute, violin, violoncello but also voices transformed electronically,
tape loops and non-musical noises of different objects and tools. Sounds of the cities, industrial
clatter, scraps from TV and radio news can be heard in the works of Rh+. In addition to its original
compositions Rh+ works on classical music (Virus
Shostakovich, Insomnia
Aria). Video
creations presented on several screens are the part for the music.
Each concert of Rh+ is a unique and interactive performance. Rh+ blurs the boundaries between
styles and trends, the pop and classical, high and low art, as well as merges many media into
one, though incoherent whole.
Rh+ released several versions of the audio and video material: the concert [Aurora Night], the
studio recording, [Milosc i Pozadanie (Love and Desire)], seria: 1 - 14 - experimental combination
of musical productions, 31/10/02 , a film documenting their show at Jazzgot - a
famous Warsaw
musical club and the album Medical Academy , recorded in 2003 at the F. Chopin Academy of
Music recording studios in Warsaw. In 2005 r. Rh+ released its album POEMS and
in 2007 a CD album AKTION
with a video track included. In 2008 Rh+ wass on tour with its Music for the
Working Class audiovisual concert. In 2009 a new project TECHNO CABARET
was created which was premiered at the 30. PPA Festival in Wrocław. The group is also creating
scores for cinema
including live and studio creations for classic silent movies like Metropolis
by F. Lang, Battleship Potiemkin by S. Eisenstein.

computer, video creations] and Grzegorz Szyma [musical installations, turntables,
