MoEns

Prague’s premiere new music ensemble presents a concert of contemporary Czech composers.

The MoEns ensemble established in 1995, was created by a group of Prague-based performers and composers to be a permanent platform for the professional performance of contemporary music via a stable musical body. The aim of the ensemble is to present detailed and specialised interpretation of new works and, by so doing, to encourage the creation of demanding works for the ensemble. The Basis of the MoEns ensemble's repertoire incorporates is music written by the younger generation of the Czech composers. This is complemented by contemporary music from abroad and also by selected classics of new music. The ensemble has played in such contemporary music festivals as Fliesende Grenzen - Hamburg, the Prague Spring Festival, the Exposition of New Music -Brno, Melos Ethos -Bratislava and the New Music Marathon, Prague, Forum neuer Musik - Koeln, Dartington Music Festival.

Their residency at Wilfrid Laurier University includes masterclasses and composer workshop. As an exchange project, NUMUS will present a concert of Canadian new music at the Exposition of New Music in Brno, Czech Republic in 2007.
