International Contemporary Ensemble

Now in its third decade, the International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE) is a multidisciplinary collective of musicians, digital media artists, producers, and educators, including numerous Oberlin alumni committed to building and innovating collaborative environments. ICE artists will culminate a weeklong residency at Oberlin with a performance of their program, “Composing While Black, Volume I,” joined by Oberlin students and faculty.

“[The International Contemporary Ensemble] remains an essential contributor to the exploration of new music.” —Musical America
