Figmentum Ensemble seeks to go beyond the conventional boundaries of contemporary art music, exploring repertoire for alternative instruments and uncommon sounds.
We are a unique collective of composers, writers, builders and more. We aim to create – music, instruments, ideas, and community. We seek to educate and engage with those around us through performances and events. We call San Diego our home. Our performances seek to engage with the community, and to be an integral part of San Diego’s culture.
A Figmentum event may be at a coffee house in North Park, a museum Downtown, or even a bookstore by the beach in Del Mar. Toy pianos – pink, red, and black – may find their way onto our stage. Newly-constructed instruments might make their debut. Our performances seek to engage with the community, to be an integral part of San Diego’s culture.
