Founded in 2005, the concept of the Juventas new music ensemble began as a
means to offer society at large an amazing opportunity to get to know the
music by today's generation of young composers.
In attempting to fill this niche, Juventas is taking a fresh approach to
presenting music. For example, we primarily perform pieces by composers
under the age of 35, and we travel to many different venues in the process.
This approach attracts a variety of people to experience music that
otherwise might have only been available to listeners through an academic
setting. Additionally, Juventas is excited to explore a variety of musical
idioms and genres; in fact, we intend to perform, over time, nearly every
submission that we receive, so long as the instrumentation and difficulty is
suitable to our capabilities.
Over the past two years, Juventas has held over 12 concerts in 6 different
venues. Please help us support new music by attending our upcoming performance!
Thank you and we hope to see you there!
Erin Huelskamp
President
