Impro Session

RANGES COLLECTIVE is an ensemble dedicated to free improvisation, avant-garde jazz, electroacoustic exploration, and real-time composition. Formed by Ghazal Faghihi (IR / BE), Polina Pohozha (UA/SE), Clémence Manachère (FR / DE), Giulia Pastorino (IT), Mireia Pellisa (CAT/CH), and Clara Torner (CAT), the group met during a transformative five-week
residency in Montaldeo, Italy — the Ranges residency supported by Culture Moves Europe and the Goethe-Institut, run by Casa della Musica San Michele.
Born from diverse artistic backgrounds — classical, contemporary music, jazz, performance art, and experimental electronics — Ranges Collective operates as an open, evolving platform where sound, gesture, and space interact without hierarchy. Their music exists between genres, cultures, and perspectives. Each member brings her own voice, embracing a sound free from stylistic and personal boundaries. The group explores extended techniques, live processing, and site-specific interaction, creating immersive sound environments and challenging conventional listening. Through co-creation, they developed unique ways of improvising and “practicing”, constantly pushing the boundaries of chamber music dynamics.
Ranges positions itself at the crossroads of free improvisation, experimental music, sound art, and performative research, blurring the lines between composition and improvisation, concert and ritual.
In late 2024, the ensemble performed in Milan (with Conserere and Collettivo_21), Ovada (invited by Due Sotto l’Ombrello), and Montaldeo.
Their debut album will be released in the coming year.
