Since its inception in 1996, the DEDALUS Ensemble of Montpellier, France has been a leading purveyor of contemporary experimental music across the Atlantic. For its US debut, DEDALUS Ensemble has initiated a project which gives a selective overview of new music from NYC. With Made in USA, the ensemble will be working with an esteemed roster of New York-based experimental composers, including Travis Just, Devin Maxwell, Cat Lamb, Jason Brogan, Quentin Tolimieri, Jonathan Marmor, Craig Shepard, John Hastings, and Michael V. Waller. These exciting new compositions will be performed by Dedalus both in at Roulette, and also, jointly in Montpellier, France.
