VIOLA |
ENSEMBLE CHIMERA creates captivating music drawing from Western Classical, Indian, Balkan, Middle Eastern, and Celtic influences.
We put the act of creation top of our artistic to-do list. Each of us is western classically trained, which we marry with serious study of other musical genres, generating new works of striking power.
Our process: meet Mondays, each member sharing compositional sketches that we then workshop together. It's a dynamic process with a lot of leeway for improvisation. No rehearsal, recording, or concert is ever the same.
Much like life!
