This three-concert series features an exciting array of nearly two dozen composers and guest artists, each with unique styles of contemporary music composition. From noise works to chiptune electronics, from ambient soundscapes to classical-inspired acoustic works, the Festival leans heavily into aspects of diverse, intriguing pieces by up-and-coming and established music creators from around the world. Each concert is set in a unique downtown location.

The first concert will illuminate the Farmer's Market Pavilion Plaza with projected visuals by Robert Long and sounds by local acts Free Static and Don Haugen, as well as visiting performers Jennifer Wright, Mrs Hands, and M Denney. The event is across the street from ArtCity's annual BEAM exhibition of light-based art in the Park Blocks.

The second and third concert take place at WOW Hall and First Christian Church, respectively. They feature a variety of concert works written for EDME's core instrumentalists, joined with guest musicians Mallory Wood (flute), Max Mabry (clarinet), Tyler Kashow (bassoon), and Janice Irungu (voice). Works vary from solo to ensemble and fully acoustic to mixed electronic.

This Festival is presented by EDME, whose mission is to perform and commission underrepresented experimental works in order to open ears and minds. We work to expand the definition of what music can be and what music is capable of achieving, as well as who is capable of achieving it.
