   About ACME


ACME is dedicated to the outstanding performance of contemporary masterworks of the 20th and 21st centuries. ACME programs are both avant-garde and archetypal and the dynamic ensemble's concerts are a unique blend of intelligent performance and passionate music making. Time Out New York reports, “The ACME Ensemble is fast making a lasting impression on the New York new music landscape ...polished and playful, its programs are a broad-minded mix of rigor and eclecticism" Since its founding in August 2004, ACME has performed works by John Adams, Louis Andriessen, John Cage, Elliott Carter, George Crumb, Jacob Druckman, Charles Ives, Donald Martino, Olivier Messiaen, Nico Muhly, Steve Reich, Terry Riley, Frederic Rzewski, Ryan Streber, Toru Takemitsu, Kevin Volans, Edgar Varese, Charles Wuorinen, and Iannis Xenakis. By performing and commissioning works by up-and-coming as well as established composers, ACME aims to promote classical contemporary and avant-garde music as a necessary and prevalent component of New York City's cultural scene. ACME is comprised of virtuosic musicians who excel at the performance of chamber music as well as solo repertoire and are enthusiastic advocates for new music.
