Unlike the annual experimental festival, Eugene NoiseFest, which focuses on improvised works, the new music festival focuses on composed sound works (and sound works that push the boundaries of the definition of composed.) EDME's executive director, JP Lempke, describes new music as, "a catch-all term for sounds that are composer-driven, encompassing experimental, improvised, electronic, chamber, and symphonic musics. It is contemporary classical, but without the inherent contradiction embedded in that phrase.” EDME was founded in 2019 by Kathie Hsieh, Milton Fernández Peña, and Lee Sparks Pembleton. They commissioned a score from Lempke as part of a contemporary art work transforming a downtown block of Willamette into an artwork. Soon after, Lempke became a permanent member. Although Fernández has left for the Winston-Salem Symphony of North Carolina, the others remain in Eugene and have grown the group to twelve permanent members, plus a rotating cast of guest performers. They are dedicated to exploring the world of new music and bringing its thought-provoking beauty to a larger audience in Lane County. Beyond this, their mission as an ensemble and 501(c)(3) nonprofit is to exhibit a diverse range of underrepresented composers and musicians to the Lane County community. |
