EM'AMU

EM'AMU - The Early Music Ensemble of Aix-Marseille University

The aim of this instrumental ensemble is to discover and perform heritage music from the Middle Ages to the Baroque;
Directed by Julien Ferrando (Senior Lecturer, PRISM Laboratory (UMR 7061), EM'AMU will allow experimentation and practice of specific heritage musical gestures (touches, articulations, phrasing), but also to discover and practice improvisation and diminution. This ensemble also seeks to open a permanent dialogue around common spaces between performers, creators, researchers of Aix-Marseille University and external guests.
