Famous for creating an original experience through improvisation, Orchestra Elastique offer up another exploration of instruments, styles and traditions of music and sound making.

The band has been prolific in multiplying and testing the possibilities that reside in the performance of live acts and the scoring of films, making visceral sonic landscapes that in old times would have been forbidden and punished by the inquisition. 

On this occasion, Elastique will release the first volume of a live albums series, which will be released periodically, to document one night-off concerts. The gig itself will be recorded and available also in future release. 

The ongoing motif of OE is to face music as a playground, as a sensorial and enduring physical engaged performance to explore mental spaces of communion through sound. 

Hailing from countries such as France, Portugal, Holland, England and Mexico, OE fill this playground with instruments such as harp, accordion, trumpet, harmonium, piano, theremin, drums, percussion, electronics, vocals, cello, double bass, synths, walkie talkies, and many, many more.
