The MAVerick Ensemble is dedicated to the performance and presentation of works by composers, artists, and filmmakers of the past fifty years who sought ways to create new works that resisted the trends of the established artistic community.

Known for its bold programming and its exceptional performances, the MAVerick Ensemble presents concerts of experimental music designed to engage, entertain, and inform the audience. In residence at the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art, the ensemble presents a year-long concert series that has been selected as Critic's Choice in the Chicago Reader.

For more information on how to hire the MAVerick Ensemble for your institution please contact the artistic director, William Jason Raynovich.
