context_page_description: The Ensamble Nacional del Sur is an electro-acoustic ensemble located in Buenos Aires, which specialises in contemporary classical music.
  The ensemble was founded by composer and conductor Oscar Edelstein in 1997 as a group of research, creation, and independent music production. Now in its third generation of musicians, the group has performed many times in a number of Edelstein's acoustic theatre works, including El Caballo Fantasma, the first part of the trilogy La Teoría Sagrada del Espacio Acoustico – Libro I which according to Edelstein is about "the conflict between religion and technology, or if you wish, between creation and technology", Klange, Klange, Urutau and El Hecho.
context_section_description: Edelstein conducts the musicians with a new system 3-dimensional models that he has created. With this specially developed system of hand signals he can designate timbrical and spatial options as well as time and intensity. All the ENS are composers as well as musicians so can respond with high precision to Edelstein’s directions, to the point that it is as if his hands have censors attached to the musicians.
  Edelstein's use of rhythm with the group has been compared to Ionisation by Edgar Varèse.  Critic often praise the originality of the group; "It’s impossible to pigeonhole and classify that which knocks down genres yet at the same time contains all of them within something new."
  They were the first group in Latin America to record an album in Super Audio 5:1.
  The ENS have gained a cult reputation in Argentina and Brasil, presenting their works in a wide variety of music venues, cultural centres and theatres;  Teatro Nacional (Brasilia); Centro Cultural Nestor Kirchner, Goethe-Institut, Sala Caras y Caretas, Teatro San Martín, Centro Cultural Ricardo Rojas, Teatro Payró; El Galpón del Abasto, La Trastienda, Casa de la Cultura del FNA, Centro Nacional de la Música (Buenos Aires); Auditorio Nicolás Cassullo (Quilmes); Teatro Argentino (La Plata); Centro Parque España (Rosario); Teatro 3 de Febrero (Paraná); Auditorio Bustelo (Mendoza); & Auditorio del CePIA, Facultad de Artes (Córdoba).
