EN WATERS ADRIFT – IMPROVISED MUSIC CONCERTS Wednesday, 21 October 2026 | 20:00–22:00 | OWA, Pavilion 21 This evening of improvised music is shaped by temporary formations, unstable textures and musical languages that meet without settling into fixed forms. Working between acoustic experimentation, electronics, composition and free improvisation, the participating artists follow distinct currents while remaining part of a shared field of listening. Sounds surface, overlap and dissolve; textures gather and disperse. Like bodies of water carried by shifting currents, the musicians move between individual expression and a continuously transforming shared field.
