A new music ensemble for the 21st Century, the [Switch~ Ensemble] is dedicated to the creation of new works for chamber ensemble: we bring bold new acoustic, electroacoustic, and multimedia projects to life. We believe that working directly with composers—in a medium where the score is a point of departure rather than a finish line—allows for new and thrilling musical possibilities.
Recent engagements include performances and residencies at Harvard, Cornell, Bard College, University of Chicago, Ithaca College, Buffalo State, and UC Berkeley, as well as concerts at the Image/Sound Festival, San Francisco Center for New Music, VIPA Festival, MATA Interval Series, the Queens New Music Festival, and more.
2019-20 season highlights include a workshop and performance at UC San Diego for a new commission by Katharina Rosenberger; the premiere of her work at the DiMenna Center in New York City; a return engagement at Eastman Audio Research Studio; and residencies with Harvard Group for New Music, Miami's Frost School of Music, and the SPLICE Institute.
