An evening of improvised music. 

Ad Hoc Ensembles of duos, trios and larger groups with Colin Fisher (Toronto), Patrick Boyle, Shane Krause, Jro Schuurman and Mark Sutherland. 

The ever-curious Colin Fisher has a been a major presence in Canada's music community for more than twenty years—particularly in more experimental and improvisational circles. Nothing short of a guitar virtuoso, he also wields saxophone, drums, and various other instruments with similarly refined musicality, vivid textural imagination, and sometimes feral abandon.
