Aranis is an ensemble that creates and performs new, exciting music. Music is full of contrasts and themes. It is both dark and light. It is beautiful, ugly, simple, and complex. Although it has its own personality, you can still hear influences from many different styles and genres. It is unique and recognisable, something you have never heard before. This is how you get a modern, vibrant music that has a unique character. Aranis is made up of six passionate musicians. They may call on guest musicians depending on the project they are working on. Their performances have a dynamic and delicate orchestration that they continually search for new and exciting renditions.
