The 2016 re-issue of ‘systems/layers‘, the final Rachel’s album, garnered a “Best New Reissue” on Pitchfork and was called “a truly synthesized mesh of chamber music and electronics that sounded like little else…a godfather record to the nascent (post-classical) genre…” A core ensemble of viola, cello, piano, guitar/bass, drums, and percussion was surrounded by many other orchestral instruments, tape manipulation, cinematic sound design, found sounds and electronic elements in their studio albums. As a solo artist he has released seven albums since 2010. He has worked at a long list of theaters, notably the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Classic Stage Company, The Public Theater, Playwright’s Horizons, Rattlestick Playwrights Theater, Atlantic Stage 2, The Old Globe, Woolly Mammoth, Hartford Stage, On The Boards, and especially Actor’s Theatre of Louisville where he worked on over 20 productions and was a regular designer at the Humana Festival of New American Plays. Frederickson was trained as a classical musician, and holds a Bachelor’s degree in performance from The Peabody Conservatory of Johns Hopkins University and a Master’s degree from The Juilliard School.
