Spanning continents, styles, high and low technologies and around for four decades, Musica Elettronica Viva occupies a unique place in contemporary music.

Founded in Rome in 1966 to play avant-garde composition, the group evolved into an improvising ensemble deploying sophisticated synthesiser technology alongside tin cans and panes of glass, leaving no potential sound-source unexplored.

Recent collaborations with veteran British improvisers AMM and festival appearances by members Alvin Curran, Frederic Rzewski and Richard Teitelbaum attest to the durability of MEV's generous aesthetic.
