String Theory Music Collective Society

The vision of String Theory Music Collective is to inspire curiosity and appreciation for Early Music and an understanding of its role and relevance in today’s contemporary musical and cultural landscape. Our mission is to create innovative and memorable artistic experiences illuminating historical connections with our current view. Presenting music in historical and modern contexts we challenge preconceptions and provide opportunities for discovery and thoughtful engagement. We aim to build community and expand creative possibilities. String Theory Music Collective engages with local professional musicians who specialize in Early Music performance. Through a historically informed and innovative approach to programming STMC aims to provide groundbreaking experiences that both honour tradition and explore new possibilities. Performing on historical instruments we recreate history in the present moment. With Early Music as a point of reference and departure we find strings of continuity that bridge cultures time periods and artistic genres. By challenging conventions we create unique programs that open perspectives and appeal to a diverse audience. Through multi-disciplinary collaborations with professional and emerging artists and arts organizations we build partnerships that strengthen and contribute to the sustainability growth and resiliency of the arts sector in Calgary. With our focus on scholarship and commitment to excellence we provide leadership and learning opportunities for our colleagues and collaborators. Engaging with mentors from around the world we advance our professional development and support our vision. We are committed to sharing our expertise and passion through educational initiatives that foster the next generation of artists and arts enthusiasts.
