Juventas New Music Ensemble

The Juventas New Music Ensemble works to promote and perform new music by young living composers. The Juventas New Music Ensemble voices the musical culture of the present by featuring repertoire by composers age 35 and under. Based in Boston, Massachusetts, the ensemble has seven core musicians, which are augmented with guest artists to form a wide array of instrumentations—both traditional and non-traditional. Since its founding in 2005, Juventas has performed the work of more than 80 composers in exhilarating concerts that showcase the diversity of contemporary music. From lyrical melodies to recorded sounds from outer space, Juventas performances are a tour de force, showcasing the most engaging music of a new generation. With over 50 concerts under its belt, the ensemble has steadily gained recognition. The Boston Globe has featured Juventas as a “Classical Music Pick” five times and, the group has been invited to a wide range of events, including the Art Fair of Boston and a global summit for Images and Voices of Hope in New York. Highlights of the 09-10 season include Juventas’ first ever club concert at The Middle East, a performance at the Boston Athenaeum, the third annual Opera Project, and resi¬dencies at The Boston Conservatory and Middlebury College.
