a concept-based,
new music//new media
performing ensemble
Fuse Ensemble is a unique electroacoustic chamber ensemble. Each season a concept is presented, giving voice to new music composers and creating musical happenings with visual elements of live or interactive video, electronics, or kinetic installations. They joyfully collaborate with sculptors, visual artists, instrument makers, poets; with analog and digital artists of all types.
