Fuse is known for its versatile and energetic live performances, breaking free from all musical categories. The sextet delivers a vibrant mix of classical compositions, jazz, minimal music, folk music, and improvisations, making each performance a unique experience. With their latest project, Mikrokosmos, they surpass themselves.

The ensemble invited twelve composers from around the world to capture the twelve universal stages of life through music. From the Big Bang to the final breath, it all comes to life. The Mikrokosmos cycle consists of brand new works by Bryce Dessner, Gabriel Kahane, Miho Hazama, Joey Roukens, Thomas Beijer, JacobTV, Morris Kliphuis, Nathalie Joachim, Kinan Azmeh, Julia Philippens, Xavi Torres, and Gabriella Smith.

Fuse creates a life-affirming melting pot of musical styles, while scenographer and VJ Frouke ten Velden translates the cosmic musical journey into spectacular visuals and lighting.
