Eva Risser – Ensemble Ensemble

Initiated by Eve Risser, Ensemble Ensemble brings together five musicians whose roots in Romania, Norway, Alsace and the Dordogne fold folk fragments into an organic sound. Mari Kvien Brunvoll (vocals, electronics), George Dumitriu (violin, viola), Kim Myhr (guitar), Toma Gouband (drums) and Eve Risser (piano, flute, vocals) weave elemental textures where improvisation meets delicate composition.
