Nova Linea Musica

NOVA LINEA MUSICA (NLM) is the latest addition to Chicago’s new-music scene, a music creation engine already busy generating new string music as its moniker affirms. Its ambition, though, is far more crucial to classical music’s ability to thrive in the years to come: to etch new connections between performers, composers, and listeners and close the distances between them.

For music to captivate and then sustain public attention of any consequence today, it must necessarily reflect the immediacy of being alive at this very moment in time. Galvanized by that truth, Nova Linea Musica commissions the exceptional sonic sculptors of our era from around the world, pairs them with dynamic virtuosi poised to elucidate and champion their work, and then invites curious listeners to experience the birth of new work in a space so intimate and generative that there can be no spectators…only allies and co-conspirators.
