Brief Synopsis:
The guiding principle of this ensemble is to create a collective of Denver and International musicians dedicated to free improvisation. Every Bottesini performance will be an entirely unique musical experience which will draw upon a multitude of musical genres and landscapes. In each coming performance various instrumentation and personnel changes will become the norm. You can expect to see some of the most talented and proficient musicians from around the world in all future Bottesini performances.

Each performance of Bottesini will focus strongly on a programmatic approach to free improvisation. The intent of this approach is to create musical landscapes with inherent form and structure; thus, lending the impression of composed rehearsed music.
