About

The Cana­di­an New Music Net­work (CNMN) is a mem­ber­ship-based orga­ni­za­tion con­nect­ing and rep­re­sent­ing every­one involved in Cana­di­an music and sound cre­ation. CNMN ambi­tion is to gath­er all Cana­di­an com­posers, per­form­ers, ensem­bles, orches­tras, admin­is­tra­tors, ser­vice orga­ni­za­tions, pro­duc­tion com­pa­nies, pre­sen­ters, record labels, music edu­ca­tors, music media, musi­col­o­gists and enthu­si­asts from across the coun­try and reach­ing out to mem­bers abroad.

Peo­ple from many cul­tures and prac­tices cre­ate new music in Cana­da. CNMN’s activ­i­ties reflect our belief in and enthu­si­asm for the val­ue and ben­e­fits of new music for both for indi­vid­u­als and com­mu­ni­ties as a means of expres­sion and lis­ten­ing. CNMN mem­bers prac­tice a full range of vibrant musi­cal and/or son­ic prac­tices and inter­ests, be they per­for­ma­tive or con­tem­pla­tive, live or medi­at­ed, pro­fes­sion­al or enthu­si­ast. CNMN brings us togeth­er, cat­alyzes ini­tia­tives and cre­ates resources for a dynam­ic and nur­tur­ing cre­ative environment.
