The Spanish instrumental group will present their innovative works at Dalhousie Arts Centre.

Ensemble Sinkro is an instrumental performance group that works on innovative projects and pays particular attention to integrating sound and image, and the acoustic and stage space. The incorporation of new components from other artistic disciplines such as dance, theater and video has provided an array of very different perspectives during its recent history. The group also specializes in the field of new technologies applied to contemporary music composition.

One of Ensemble Sinkro’s key objectives is for composers’ and performers’ work to be reflected in proposals specifically designed for each concert, complying with the diversity offered by the music of our day, created and performed by musicians committed to new artistic trends. Its concerts combine sound and visual elements in works that seek the audience’s complicity and interaction. The shows contain a mixture of instrumental works, electroacoustic works, improvisation, dance, video and theater.

Ensemble Sinkro’s members are Roberto Casado, flute; Alfonso Gómez, piano; Jabi Alonso, percusión; Guillermo Lauzurika, sampler; Alfonso García de la Torre, electronics.
