Timothy Vajda (pronounced VI-da) is a composer and instrumentalist whose
principal instrument is the viola da gamba. He also plays the medieval fiddle,
electric and acoustic guitar, and keyboard.
As a gambist, he participated in numerous early music performances in the St.
Louis area with members of the St.Louis Symphony and more recently as a member
of the Ganzfeld Quartet.
Tim has studied early music performance with Nicholas
McGegan and Bruce Dickey and was also the
guitarist for Catnip College, a band that played blues and rock and specialized
in improvisations that ranged from straight-forward blues to atonal,
polyrhythmic mayhem.
As a composer, Vajda enjoys exploring the textural possibilities of the
instruments available to him, and combining various, sometimes disparate,
compositional methods. He received his Master's Degree in Music
Theory/Composition from Webster University in St. Louis, MO.
Tracks from "Bootstrap Physics" have received
frequent airplay on the syndicated radio show "Echoes".
