Ensemble UN

Ensemble UN is a large French collective associated with the Bordeaux improvisation scene, bringing together more than twenty players across strings, winds, percussion, voices and electronics.

Their Creative Sources album UN documents six pieces by different members, recorded at Théâtre des Quatre Saisons in Gradignan in July 2014. Individual works use varied ideas of orchestral mass, gesture and organization.

The ensemble's artistic identity is founded on collective experimentation rather than a fixed small-group configuration.
