How does ICE work?

Ensemble and Organizational Structure

ICE is comprised of a flexible group of thirty chamber musicians, including strings, woodwinds, piano, percussion, voice and composers, which enables great flexibility of programming. ICE performs works scored for ensembles from solos and duos to chamber orchestra, as well as multi-media works, works utilizing extended techniques and non-western instruments, and improvisatory and electro-acoustic works.

ICE has a five-part organizational structure comprised of:

ICE Advisory Board

A distinguished panel of internationally-acclaimed musicians, music educators, composers and administrators with extensive experience in the field of contemporary music, the Advisory Board advises ICE on matters of artistic programming, fundraising, and marketing/development.

ICE Executive Board of Directors

A growing body of board members who are committed to fundraising, managing ICE’s finances, overseeing ICE’s organizational and artistic growth, and developing links to the community.

ICE Staff

A paid part-time staff consisting of Executive Director, Program Director, a Chicago Administrative Assistant, a New York Administrative Assistant, a Fundraiser, a Graphic Designer and Webmaster.

ICE Artist Roundtable

Thirty distinguished, accomplished young chamber musicians who make up the ensemble.

ICE Roundtable Committee

A committee of 5-7 leading Roundtable players who are cooperatively responsible for personnel management, contracting guest soloists, conductors and collaborators. The RC also discusses programming with the Executive and Program Directors on a regular basis, and fields inquires and ideas from the Roundtable at large for consideration by the Executive and Program Directors.
