MAZE is an Amsterdam based collective for exploratory music. They work on developing open forms, hybrid scores and notations, and performances that subvert hierarchies between listeners, musicians, composers and scores. Next to presenting their own works they collaborate with pioneering composers like Christian Marclay, Barbara Ellison, Robert Ashley, Alvin Lucier, Okkyung Lee, Michael Pisaro, Peter Ablinger and Annea Lockwood.

… the name MAZE couldn’t be more appropriate for this endeavour … gauzy webs form in the darkness, thicken and soon dissolve into other tentative textures … this is a very unusual interplay in which the unfolding of highly subjective personal dimensions invoked by each performer will have in turn its implications in the personal environments of the listeners: it’s like being written into a Jorge Luis Borges story …
