Nicolas Caloia
Nicolas Caloia is a Montreal based double bassist, composer, bandleader and the artistic director of the production company Musique rayonnante. For the past thirty years he has worked at creating a living music by using rigorously composed material to channel collective improvisation. The goal is a music that erases the lines between improvised and composed, pop and avant-garde, good and bad. Caloia has been commissioned to compose works for the Quatuor Bozzini (2019), the GGRIL (2017), Productions Super Musique (2012), and the Festival International de Musique actuelle de Victoriaville (FIMAV) (2011).
