Ensemble Musikfabrik

In the artist's words:

Since its foundation in 1990, Ensemble Musikfabrik (Landesensemble NRW) has been one of the leading ensembles for contemporary music. In keeping with the claim of its own name, the ensemble is particularly committed to commissioning and producing new works. The Cologne-based international soloist ensemble presents the results of this work - often in close cooperation with the composers - in numerous concerts in Germany and abroad, at festivals, in the self-organized concert series "Musikfabrik im WDR" and "Montagskonzerte" (often with live broadcasts) and in audio and video productions. WERGO released the CD series "Edition Musikfabrik" with cover pictures by Gerhard Richter, which the painter selected for the CDs. His own label Musikfabrik was founded in 2014.
