New Music Chicago Details
New Music Chicago advocates for the importance of a vital, vibrant music scene in our city and its geographical region. We are a membership organization that connects creators and supporters of non-mainstream and experimental music, supporting our passionate community through a mix of online and in-person services, including a calendar, social media presence, networking opportunities, professional development, and occasional performances, serving both emerging and established artists.Founded in 2005 to serve the growing community of ensembles, organizations, and composers involved in contemporary music, New Music Chicago is a membership organization that supports and advances the city's robust cultural scene with resources for artists, composers, and audiences.From inception, the New Music Chicago Calendar provided information on public contemporary music performances and allowed ensembles to share and grow, rather than compete for, audiences. NMC maintains a website comprising the calendar and its member profiles, as well as a Facebook page and a monthly e-newsletter. NMC has offered a series of "best practice" meetings for young ensembles and monthly New Music happy hours, providing opportunities for learning as well as valuable networking events.In 2006, NMC organized Sonic Impact, a two-day festival in the Museum of Contemporary Art. NMC hosted free showcases at the downtown Chicago Cultural Center in 2007 and 2008 and returns to the CCC in 2019 with a new series of free monthly lunchtime concerts.In summer 2011, NMC presented Terry Riley's In C in Millennium Park, followed the next summer by a collaborative performance on John Luther Adams' Inuksuit and a collaborative event in 2015 in celebration of NMC's 10th anniversary. In 2016 NMC served as the partner and fiscal sponsor of Ear Taxi Festival/Chicago Festival, which returns in 2020.In 2019 the second Impromptu Festival was held in March and the monthly series New Music Chicago Presents launched.
