Wiener ARP Ensemble (The Vienna ARP Ensemble / W~ARP) is an international sound art performing collective founded and based in Vienna. It consists of Evgeny Ignashev (RU/AT), Sinan Ilhan (TR/AT), Wolfgang Musil (AT), Frederic Stritter (DE). Each member plays a legendary ARP 2600 — one of the most iconic modular analog synthesizers ever, and for the first time in history so many of them appear together on stage. Along with the ARP 2600 synthesizers W~ARP's performances involve the use of multichannel immersive sound diffusion systems, custom-made sound reproduction and live sound transformation tools, such as amplified metal plates or 20-meter long piano strings, tape machines and other sonic curiosities.

Jedes Mitglied spielt einen ARP 2600 — der legendäre analoge Synthesizer der auch R2-D2 eine Stimme gab. Ihre Performances sind Improvisationen, die andere Klangobjekte (Metallplatten, Bandmaschinen oder Klaviersaiten) als Erweiterung mit den Synthesizern verbinden.
