Concrete Timbre

The results of our efforts!

     A big part of the Concrete Timbre mission is to be a part of making live original concert music survive and flourish in an increasingly digital world. All of our programming makes opportunities for composers and performers.

     We strive to blur the boundaries of the performing and visual arts to add bold interdisciplinary performances to the contemporary music canon.

     We create opportunities for composers to work in multidisciplinary settings that often defy categorization into a specific type of art.

     We thank the many professional artists who share in our mission. And, we thank fans like you who share in the experience.

     We’re a small and growing company and but we have made a large impact!

The numbers are in!
