<p><strong>Kiila<br /> </strong>Kiila was founded by Niko-Matti Ahti and Sami Sänpäkkilä in 1993 in Ulvila, Finland. The band first worked as a duo and played their first show in Pori, a city near by, in 1995. Since that Kiila has shifted through many phases, played a lot of music, seen many events and people. The composition of the group has always varied quite effortlessly according to the needs of the band and the people in it. After the release of Tuota tuota Kiila will be playing shows as a six-piece group and rehearsing new songs in a basement of a cathedral and house on a hill. The future looks merry, like a dance or a menuet. (<a href="http://www.kiila.com" target="_blank">http://www.kiila.com</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Rank Ensemble</strong><br />Rank is a Helsinki-based ensemble devoted to new music and free improvisation. More specifically, their activities focus on improvisation, as well as works from the contemporary music repertoire which include elements of improvisation, or otherwise expanded roles for the performers. Boasting a unique instrumental line-up, and four members from five countries, bringing with them a range of backgrounds, Rank ignores barriers, and offers a fresh perspective on the new music scene.

<p><strong>Sari TM Kivinen<br /></strong>In her performances Kivinen attempts to isolate behaviour, which is subsequently regurgitated through performative actions. Her interest is to locate gaps within her own identity, to explore learnt and mimicked behaviour and to negotiate levels of uncertainty, failure and success. Performances occur in a variety of forms such as durational action based performances, dramatic role-plays, and social investigations. For her performance at Ptarmigan Kivinen will merge predetermined actions with sensory responses to the specific site and audience. .

<p><strong>Rank Ensemble</strong><br />Rank-ensemble on uuteen musiikkiin ja improvisaatioon keskittynyt helsinkiläisyhtye. Tarkemmin sanottuna Rank keskittyy toisaalta vapaan improvisaation, toisaalta improvisatorisia elementtejä sisältävän nykymusiikin esittämiseen. Yhtyeen ainutlaatuinen kokoonpano on harppu (Saara Rautio, Suomi), piano/elektroniikka (James Andean, Kanada), kitara (Solmund Nystabakk, Norja) ja käyrätorvi (Elena Kakaliagou, Kreikka/Itävalta). Taustoiltaan monipuoliset muusikot ovat soittaneet yhdessä tässä kokoonpanossa syksystä 2009 alkaen.

<p><strong>Sari TM Kivinen</strong><br />Kivinen on käyttänyt jo usean vuoden ajan performansseissaan metodina roolipelejä ja roolien vaihtoja. Kivinen tutkii identiteetin rakenteita roolipelien kautta. Esitykset tapahtua monella tavalla: kesto aktin, roolipeli, ja sosiaali tutkimus. Kivistä kiinnostaa tutkia mitä hänelle performanssitaiteilijana tarkoittaa samanaikainen paljastaminen ja kätkeminen. (<a href="http://www.sari.net.au" target="_blank">http://www.sari.net.au</a>)</p>
