New York Art Ensemble

About Me

Our mission is to challenge, inspire, entertain, educate, and thereby connect the public to the best of new American music. We present eclectic programming that reflects the energy and diversity of America's contemporary musical environment and features professional musicians of the highest caliber. Our concerts take a fresh approach to programming that considers composers, performers, and the audience as one--to be integral to the relevance and success of our art. New music is exploding into a galaxy of wonderful new styles and expression, and we are dedicated to putting people in touch with the music of our time, and to nurturing the development of works by living composers. Please join us as we challenge, inspire, entertain, educate, and connect one another to the best of new American music. Check it all out at www.nyae.org.
