ICEcommons is a crowdsourced index of newly composed music that welcomes all composers to share their new work. Join us for a concert of new works by New York City Composers, discovered via the Ensemble’s open-call index, ICEcommons.org. For this edition, we’ll explore the animated scores of Bergrún Snaebjörnsdóttir, whose work the Ensemble discovered via the ICEcommons Living Archive at Nordic Music Days 2016.

Performances and commissioning activities during the 2018-19 concert season are made possible by the generous support of The Andrew W.
