Wet Ink

Friday, April 18, 2014, at 8PM
Concert Hall

The collective Wet Ink is a formidable vehicle for new music in the form of a presenting organization and two performing ensembles. Wet Ink takes its vernacular from the European avant-garde, but views it through a distinctly New York City lens—at times visceral and unrelenting, but still maintaining a complexity and richness in structure and sound. The members of the Wet Ink Ensemble, a septet, collaborate in a band-like fashion—writing, improvising, and preparing pieces together over long stretches of time.

Since 2008, Wet Ink has been engaged in a series of residencies with various arts organizations, including The Kitchen, the Walden School, Amherst College, Northern Illinois University, UC San Diego, Santa Clara University, Sacramento State University, UC Davis, Duke University, and at the Jazz Composers Orchestra Institute (Miller Theater, NYC). Wet Ink has recorded extensively.
