Introducing The New Contemporary

 

The New Contemporary is a collective of composers dedicated to creating innovative, accessible, and engaging works that resonate with today’s listeners. We aim to bridge the gap between classical traditions and modern sensibilities, offering fresh, compelling works that speak to both heart and intellect while honoring the rich legacy of classical music. With artistic innovation and a focus on accessibility, we strive to inspire both seasoned classical listeners and new audiences.

 

New Jersey composers Robert W. Butts, Michael DeMaio, and David Williams are the three composers who have created the exciting opportunity for audiences and composers to experience new concert compositions performed by New Jersey's leading artists.
