Ensemble Progresivo

Ensemble Progresivo was coordinated by reed player Ricardo Tejero, with Alison Blunt on violin, Adrian Northover on saxophones, Marcio Mattos on cello and electronics, and Roberto Sassi on electric guitar.

Their Creative Sources album Hesitancy was recorded at Audiounderground Studios in London in December 2013. Its nine tracks follow Tejero's idea of Progressions: structured proposals that transform with each performance and are not repeated identically.

The ensemble brings musicians from the London improvisation scene together to explore relationships between prepared structures, real-time decisions and collective sound.
