Esmerine

Co-founded by percussionist Bruce Cawdron and cellist Rebecca Foon in 2001, multi Juno-winning Esmerine keeps one foot in contemporary classical and late 20th century Minimalism, the other in more visceral and lyrical sonic terrain born from post-rock, punk, folk and global. The group shares stylistic affinities with the likes of Dirty Three, Rachel's, Bang On A Can All-Stars and Sō Percussion,
Esmerine has released six critically-acclaimed albums of minimalist, expressive modern chamber music.
