Antigone Music Collective
Orson Abram
The Antigone Music Collective is a group of performers dedicated to the exploration of expression through music. Our work emphasizes experimentation, and stylistic pluralism. Performance, teaching, improvisation, and collaboration are what we do best.
We hold relationships with dozens of composers and continue to commission, perform, and inspire new music. Our performers have appeared as soloists and chamber musicians worldwide at festivals such the Southern Illinois Music Festival, the Darmstadt Summer Course, Knisel Hall, VIVO Chamber Music Festival, the Mostly Modern Music Festival and many more.
Our recent work includes teaching and performing at Iceland’s Vid Djupid music festival, collaborating with Brian Raphael Nabors’ with support from The Well in Cincinnati. Our work has been heard on WGUC Cincinnati and on Iceland National Radio.
Performing are Tao Ke, Amelia Korbitz, Ellen Boll, Jackie Pegis, Roberta Michel, and Liam Battle.

Orson Abram (b. 2002) is a multimedia artist who blurs the lines between composer, percussionist, improviser, filmmaker, performer, and sound artist. In 2025, they graduated from Oberlin Conservatory and College, where they studied Music Technology, English, Percussion Performance, Cinema and Media, and currently are pursuing their master's degree in Composition with a Teaching Assistantship in Music Technology at Bowling Green State University, where they study with Dr. John Eagle. Orson works across the intersections of video, performance, installation, and music composition to explore the translation from personal to universal memory, the ethics of performance, and transgression in traditionally conservative spaces. Their work aims to provoke and cross the lines of what music composition and performance is designed to be.
Orson will perform ann improvisatory set exploring electric guitar, vibrating objects, and snare drum.
