PRAISE FOR WET INK


"Wet Ink are a crack ensemble comprised of exciting composers. When they come together as a band, they're one of the best in town."

- The Wire

"Dense, wild, yet artfully controlled..."

- Zachary Woolfe, The New York Times

" ... the fantastic Wet Ink Ensemble combined striking stylistic and aesthetic assurance with technical perfection."

- Torsten Möller, Dissonanz (Switzerland)

"Comprehensively astounding .... a twenty-first century masterpiece .... a ninety-minute tour de force in which ideas assume sound and form."

- Alex Ross, The New Yorker [on Kate Soper's Ipsa Dixit, written for Wet Ink over 6 years of collaboration]

"...multitasking virtuosos."

Alex Ross, The New Yorker

"A brilliant, uncompromising collective of composers, interpreters, and improvisers"

- Steve Smith, The Log Journal

"This composers’ collective and performing ensemble has made a mark in a crowded New York scene with persuasive accounts of uncompromisingly original music by its members, and with its unflagging belief in the power of collaboration."

- Steve Smith, The New Yorker

"Sublimely exploratory..."

- Peter Margasak, The Chicago Reader

"Wet Ink’s repertoire includes music that they collectively develop, like a rock band...and the group is a leading interpreter of composers like Anthony Braxton and Christian Wolff...taken together, it all makes for a body of work drawing connections that might seem obvious, even commonplace, were it not for the reality that they have, in actual fact, been woefully under-explored"

- George Grella, Music & Literature
