416 Toronto Creative Improvisers Festival

416 Toronto Creative Impovisers Festival Produced by 416 Festival Group Starts: November 16, 2010 Ends: November 20, 2010 Time: 10:00 PM to 01:00 AM Price range: $1 - $9 The 416 Toronto Creative Improvisers Festival is a yearly showcase for the vibrant Toronto improvised music scene.The 416 area code's finest improvising musicians, and sometimes visitors from farther afield, play in a wide variety of styles in 3 or 4 sets over each of the festival's 4 nights.Their improvisations take the form of completely free-form spontaneous compositions, created entirely "in the moment, at the moment of performance, by the performers".At other times, a drawing, graphic, object, original musical chart or just the audience 'vibe', are used to inspire the music. The 416 is a celebration of music-making on a tightrope.
