"One can't improvise in a musical process -- the concepts are mutually exclusive." - Steve Reich, 1968
"Challenge Accepted" - Close No Circle, 2024
Close No Circle...
...is a contemporary classical ensemble based in Dallas, TX.
We compose, perform, and record new and existing works of music written in an open form.
Our music involves a high degree of performer agency, meaning that the ensemble does not merely begin on measure one and stop when they reach a double-barline at the end of the score. Our scores often look like the picture to the right.
Our music is written for any combination of any number of instruments too! Our personnel changes a bit each concert.
Our goal is to expose the wider public to this relatively unexplored style of contemporary classical music, hosting affordable or free concerts around the DFW metroplex!
