Extradition is a musical ensemble working at the intersection of composition and improvisation
Extradition is a musical ensemble working at the intersection of composition and improvisation, intentionality and chance, clarity and silence. Based in Portland, Oregon, USA, we present quarterly concerts and intimate recital events that feature realizations of notated scores, text- and graphics-based works, and structured improvisations. We maintain no repertoire, instead always moving forward—learning and performing new works and then putting them aside to prepare for what’s next.
