Innovations en concert was founded in 1994 by guitarist and composer Tim Brady. In its current incarnation under artistic director Isak Goldschneider, it presents some of the most interesting new music in Montreal.
Devoted to experimental chamber music, Innovations has no permanent venue and produces events in small and medium-sized rooms (mostly bars and churches, the places where alcohol is traditionally consumed). Though concerts (or shows? The distinction doesn’t make sense with them) don’t assume a respectful hush, I have noticed
they usually earn it.
