Latitude 49

Founded in 2012, Latitude 49 blends the finesse of a classical ensemble with the drive and precision of a finely tuned rock band. L49 has been ensemble-in-residence at the University of Michigan, the Kenosha Creative Space, Baylor University, and the University of Illinois Chicago, and presents numerous concerts each season in major venues including the Ravinia Festival (Chicago), (le) Poisson Rouge (NYC), the Princeton Sound Kitchen, The Juilliard School, Chicago’s ‘Ear Taxi’ Festival, and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra’s Music Box. Dozens of works have been written for the group by a multitude of composers ranging from aspiring students to Pulitzer prize-winning masters. Each summer, L49 hosts the Sound Atlas New Music Festival, a genre-bending week of collaboration and cultural exchange in downtown Calgary, Alberta. With its name taken from the parallel that serves as the Canadian/US border, Latitude 49 serves as a bridge between the artists, composers, and listeners of today.
