Arnold Schönberg was one of the key figures of the music of the twentieth century: a composer, musical innovator, theorist, lecturer, and organiser of musical life, but also an artist, essayist, writer, and inventor. Ludensemble is setting out a table of true musical delicacies to celebrate the one hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of the birth of Schönberg: chamber music is played from the composer’s various creative periods, allowing the audience to enjoy late Romanticism, as well as dodecaphonic pieces.

Ludensemble is a group of like-minded people who came together in January 2024. The group’s core consists of acknowledged Estonian musicians. The ensemble’s purpose is to create conceptual concert programmes and to tie in contemporary music to other forms of art, promoting the ordering, performing, and spread of new pieces, and bringing to the audience works from the canon of the past century. The ensemble’s composition ranges from a chamber ensemble to a chamber orchestra, entirely as needed. The ensemble also cooperates with composers but, even though it is generally focussed on contemporary music, it is also curious to find timeless connections, which is why its repertoire may include pieces from several centuries ago. Ludensemble is juggling music, time, medium, and form.
