ENSEMBLE

MotoContrario Ensemble is a flexible ensemble, embracing repertoires ranging from duos to large ensemble. This has allowed it to curate performances and Italian and world premieres of composers from around the world.

In addition to works by early and late twentieth-century composers, the ensemble has curated performances (including world and Italian premieres) of pieces by several living contemporary composers, such as Francisco Quintero, Andrea Nicoli, Karlheinz Essl, Fausto Sebastiani, Antonio Agostini, Giorgio Colombo Taccani, José Sanchez-Verdù, Cesar Camarero, Pierluigi Billone, Stefano Gervasoni, Marco Momi, Malin Bång, and Carola Bauckholt, collaborating closely with each of them.

The ensemble has also collaborated with several Italian conservatories (Trento, Udine, Castelfranco Veneto, La Spezia), holding seminars on contemporary instrumental technique, composition workshops, and concerts.

The ensemble has been invited to perform in seasons such as the Cluster Festival (Lucca), Incò_ntemporanea Festival (Piacenza), Concerts at the Museo del Novecento (Milan), Il Suono Festival (Perugia), Encuentros Sonoros (Seville), Polifonie Festival (Como), La Spezia Concert Society, Bolzano Contemporary Music Festival, Sound Space Festival (Malmö), Savona Music Festival, ZZM Klagenfurt etc.
