Nick Schofield is a musician, producer and radio host with a BFA in Electroacoustic Studies. In 2018, Schofield released his debut solo album Water Sine with Backward music, described by Paste Magazine as “soothing and pellucid, meditative and transportive.” Continuing the tradition of ‘environmental music’, Water Sine is an offering of softness and simplicity, a sound that beckons for tranquility and release. In concert, Schofield has performed at the Getty Center in Los Angeles, NYC’s National Sawdust and MUTEK Montreal, previously opening for acclaimed artists Sarah Davachi, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Colin Stetson, and Hauschka.
This concert will feature Nick Schofield (synthesizer) performing alongside Yolande Laroche (clarinet) and Philippe Charboneau (bass) as ‘The Ambient Ensemble’. The first half of the concert will be a live presentation of Schofield’s album ‘Water Sine’, followed by the performance of a new work in the second half.
