**EPHEMERA TRIO**  
_"Hypnotic, transformative"_ DownTown Music Magazine, New York

_"Ephemera is al__ways outward-reaching conceptually...The quartet can achieve a surprisingly orchestral sweep...music of peculiar depth and mystery that somehow evades the laws of gravity."_ Sydney Morning Herald

_"Terrific, rich, pulsating and reverberant... sophisticated and compelling....vivid and colourful_." Limelight Magazine

**Ephemera: a musical exploration of celestial landscapes such as pulsars, craters, planetary atmospheres, stars, sun and void. Merging the sound worlds of jazz and contemporary classical, and set to real space sounds and projections, it is a unique sonic experience.**

The ensemble is led by **Keyna Wilkins** (piano/flute/compositions) with **Elsen Price** (double bass/loop pedal) and **Will Gilbert** (trumpet)  with special guest **Jodie Michael** (drumset) and includes freely improvised pieces. NASA recordings of electromagnetic waves from planets and stars is the backdrop soundtrack and has been complied by astronomer Professor Paul Francis often with projections of space probe footage. Each member brings their own unique voice to the ensemble drawing from a multitude of musical backgrounds who combine to create a distinctive sound world that organically react to stellar concepts. Universe and Universality.  
  
Formed in 2015, this ensemble have performed internationally and around Australia including 6 concerts in Japan, being featured at MONA Evenings Series, Extended Play Festival of New Music at City Recital Hall and Sydney International Womens' Jazz Festival, at Foundry 616, Red Rattler, Woodburn Creatives and Melbourne's Uptown Jazz Cafe and many more.
