Logos Ensemble

The Logos Ensemble was originally founded in 1968 by Godfried-Willem Raes. Moniek Darge joined the group in 1970. Taking their cue from the atmosphere of social and political protest typical of those times, Moniek and Godfried travelled as a duo all over the world. As performing composers, they have been reaching out for everything that is new and experimental in music. In Ghent they have created their own working space where the most varied kinds of new music can be heard (see Logos Foundation). Music is an activity around the clock for both of them. Their personal lives and artistry are intricately intertwined. Thus Raes' algorithmic music is confronted with Darge's nature sounds and ritual tableaux. Presently the duo is working again with a number of young artists/composers/performers in the framework of an ensemble that is committed exclusively to avant-garde music, multimedia performance and improvisation.

Logos' most recent installation is 'Plus-Minus' (2019): an interactive and demonstrative acoustic art project.
