Ensemblast

Ensemblast fuses the aesthetics of the classic quartet with contemporary Latin American styles and borrowing freely from a variety of musical languages -folk, jazz, salsa, bolero, world and pop. In devising a performance practice that honors both in fl uences, the state of the art has inevitably been redefined in chamber music for strings, piano, other instruments and singers. Depending on the Ensemblast program, it accommodates three to six musicians including violin, cello, bass, piano, percussion, voice or guitar, wind instruments. Created in 2012 under the name of “Baton Rouge Latin American Quartet”, in 2014 the project was renamed the “Ensemblast Project”, currently Esnemblast. The project has been presented in the southern United States and in Panama. This musical project is promoted by Panamanian cellist Isaac Casal.
