JEN REIMER is a composer and performer based in Montréal known for creating ambient site-specific performances in resonant urban locations: abandoned warehouses, viaducts, underground tunnels and metro stations.
Jen received a Bachelor of Music in composition and performance from the University of Alberta and a Graduate Diploma in performance from Concordia University. In 2008 and 2009 she was an Artist in Residence at the Banff Centre for the Arts.
She has toured internationally and participated in various festivals including Suoni per Il Popolo, Htmlles, Montréal Highlights Festival, 2nd Annual Performance Art Festival (GR), Culture Collide (US), Crossing Border (NE) and Nuit Sonores (FR).
Her work in collaboration with Max Stein combines ambient sound, field recordings and the inherent sonic environment to create an immersive experience in the space itself. In 2012 they released a 10″ record of their recordings.
Jen Reimer is a multimedia artist focusing on sound and video. She can be heard playing horn on the following records:
Kara Keith, Basia Bulat, Gigi, Ohbijou, Ellen Holck, Catherine Thompson and has worked with producers/ recording engineers Howard Bilerman and Tony Berg.
