The Etudes Project Vol. 1 "Iceberg"

ICEBERG New Music is a collective of ten young composers based in New York City. Their mission is to promote the idea that substance, not surface, is the heart of music creation and perception. The collective’s members hail from different schools of thought and cultivate radically different sounds—from musical theater and indie rock to avant-garde sounds and electronic installations—but their contrasting musical languages belie a shared emphasis on structure and depth of meaning. When the ICEBERG composers write for the same ensemble or present their works as part of a joint project, the result is a glimpse into the ever-widening possibilities of art music in the twenty-first century. • ICEBERG is committed to excellence of craft, inclusiveness of style, and educational outreach on behalf of the new music community. They produce numerous events each season, partnering with some of the country’s top ensembles to create programs that are innovative, diverse, and listener-oriented. In demand nationally and internationally, ICEBERG has presented concerts and public-oriented educational workshops across North America. In 2018, ICEBERG unveiled its Young Composer Award, a scholarship fund aimed at pre-collegiate composers from underprivileged and underrepresented backgrounds.
