Saskatoon Experimental Music Ensemble
The Saskatoon Experimental Music Ensemble creates community-oriented music based on improvisation and experimental composition with an emphasis on exploration and play. Meeting regularly since the fall of 2022, they have performed several concerts, including at the Strata New Music Festival and Sounds Like: An Audio Festival. They are made up of a core of Saskatoon-based musicians, and welcome participation from any members of the community.
“Mobile Acoustic Band (MOAB)”
An avant-garde marching band of experimental musicians exploring the unexpected art spaces of Nuit Blanche. They will be travelling throughout the festival spaces presenting impromptu, mobile, mini-concerts. They will play with the expectations that come with a marching band, including costuming, relating sound to movement, playing as part of a cultural ritual, and accompanying the spectacle of the festival, all through the lens of an experimental improvising music ensemble that finds itself outside in downtown Saskatoon.
