Festival Schedule

The 2004 New Music Miami ISCM Festival will include some 20 renowned
composers participating in the 3 day event being held April 8, 9, and
10, 2004 at the Wolfsonian - FIU located at 1001 Washington Avenue on
Miami Beach .  Presented by the FIU School of Music, the focus of the
festival is new solo and chamber music for winds.  The ISCM designation
in the festival title is a result of FIU's association with the
International Society for Contemporary Music (ISCM); an organization
dedicated to the dissemination of contemporary classical music
throughout the world.  Five concerts are being presented over the 3 days
as well as pre-concert Meet the Composers panel sessions before each
concert, in which the composers whose works are being performed will
discuss issues of relevance to their music.  All pre-concert panel
sessions and concerts are free and open to the public.  A list of
composers invited to participate in the festival is included below.

The performers for the festival are all internationally renowned artists
including FIU faculty artists clarinetist Paul Green, percussionist
