Since its establishment in 2012, the Ensemble for New Music Tallinn aimed to bring about fresh, non-conformist and newly perceived music to a new generation of audience.

Today, one of the leading groups of contemporary music in Baltic and Nordic region, the ensemble is made of a core of principal members, main musicians, and a larger body of collaborators or guest artists to form a flexibly modular format.

With a growing number of commissioned pieces and specially written compositions, a repertoire of over a hundred pieces, and several dozens of original programs covering various genera and styles of cutting-edge contemporary music, Ensemble for New Music Tallinn is becoming a recognized name in contemporary classical music scene across Europe.

Having a focal point of expertise on various intonation systems, has developed ENMT into a specialized unit to execute just the kind of microtonal intricacies and technical gymnastics required for micro-interval music and to a larger extend for repertoire of alternative intonation and experimental contemporary music.

As a leading ensemble, and one of few young specialized groups, in performance of spectral/micro-interval music, Ensemble for New Music Tallinn is the in perfect position to promote new views beyond the boundaries of established intonation systems or microtonal music.
