With Pieces from Estonia and Russia, Ensemble for New Music Tallinn (ENMT) will be performed the program that includes works of composers from two neighboring countries with much common history, yet with a highly variable, personal and individual sounding. What is sound? How the different composers define, treat or understand it? And how all these questions alongside many other concerns will affect the outcome of music and thus the audience? ENMT is committed on bringing the fresh and less experienced music to a wider audience, with emphasizing the aspects of new music that have not become contaminated by mainstream or institutionalization. The highlight of the program are world premiere of newly written pieces by Estonian composer Märt-Matis Lill, Estonian based Iranian composer Arash Yazdani and young Russian composer Artur Zobnin. These pieces are commissioned by ENMT for this project.
Moreover on the program will be performed pieces of well-known Greek-French composer Iannis Xenakis, Russian composerAlexander Radvilovich and the young emerging composer Jeff Brown . All the pieces in this program have a common and clear motif on sound, however being treated differently.
The concert takes place on Wednesday 3rd of December, at Erarta Museum and Galleries of Contemporary Art in St. Petersburg and is organized by the Saint-Petersburg Contemporary Music Center .
Our performance is on 25th of April at Fundació Antoni Tàpies at 18:00!

ENMT presents the SANTUR project, to be premiered during Fresh Music Festival, AutumnFest of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre. Composers of the contemporary classical music are asked to write new pieces for ensemble and the Persian instrument of Santur.
Santur soloist Pooyan Ataei will join the ensemble from Iran, to be at the center of the program.
The special condition of Santur such as numerous strings and unusual non- western tuning gives a rare opportunity to the composers to discover new worlds beyond the possibilities of conventional ensemble instruments. Solving the challenges of combining these different worlds from where the groups of instruments belong, gives an extra tension and material for the pieces.
The program is:
Helena Tulve (Estonia) “Every spark is numbered I”
Matthias S. Krüger (Germany) “FlussII”
Märt-Matis Lill (Estonia) “You will become like me”
Magnus Bunnskog (Sweden) “Nur”
Mehdi Hosseini (Russia/Iran) “Innertia II”
Ryan Beppel (United States) “Occupational Hazard”
Anna Romashkova (Russia) “Suspense 3”

ENMT will be featured in the International World Music Festival 2019 (ISCM) with a program of edgy multimedia works. The concert takes place on Sunday, 5th of May at 20:00, in Kanuti Gildi hall.
The dividing lines between various disciplines of arts were blurred and disappeared early in the past century. With artists liberately creating works that were hard to label within traditional definitions.
Slowly but surely this merger reached to the music world too. For many composers, music isn’t limited to auditory experience, but reaches beyond a barrage of sensation and cognition. From employing tools that were not meant to be used for music, to inventing means for making new category of sound exploitation.
This program includes several of those ground breaking composers that stepped out of realm of music and applied what could narrowly be called media.
The program also includes works of ISCM official selection.

The legendary Czech composer Alois Hàba, one of the forefathers of microtonl and alternative intonations music, has an array of pieces with various intonation systems.
An artefact in the National Museum in Prague, this 1936 harmonium was the engine behind many of Hàba’s staggering 6th-tone division pieces. Interestingly he composed only one piece for the harmonium, 6 pieces for 6th-tone harmonium. Until now this composition has never been performed in public, on the intended instrument it’s based on; we are performing these pieces in the program as well.
We are performing Hàba’s rarely heard 6 pieces, in addition to 6 new compositions for his harmonium and accompanying ensemble.
The composers who wrote new pieces for this project are:
Georg Friedrich Haas
Klaus Lang
Marc Sabat
Gérard Pape
Nina Fukoka

The 6th edition of the festival experiments with new intonation ideas with a flavour of electroacoustic music. For the first time, a particular focus on music from Switzerland takes place in Tallinn and Berlin.
Festival’s highlights include the performances of Ensemble Phoenix Basel, as well as the hour-long piece for 9 keyboards and 9 computers by Enno Poppe. The full length performance of a special piece by Peter Ablinger, which was developed together with the flutist Erik Drescher, during the lock-downs, will receive its Estonian premiere by Mr. Drescher and Mr. Ablinger themselves. World premiere of pieces by Demetre Gamsachurdia, Aleksander Gabrys, Sami Klemola, Sander Saarmets, Matthias S. Krüger and Liisa Hõbepappel are other important events in Sound Plasma 2022.
Sound Plasma version 6 wants to explore a musical language that is not classical or established, even within the microtonal or intonation-based music. For this we found works, and composers, that fear not to use the old and the new and the technology and the tradition freely in order to create their special voice. Rather predictably a strong presence of electronic sounds emerged in our program.
The festival reaches out to the Swiss music scene not only because of the impeccable quality of the music/performances but because of the nurturing effect the Swiss musical culture has on developing special and uncompromisingly unique musical voices.
The current edition of the festival dares to explore a brand new point of view with a basis in the electronic, and sometimes corny, sounds of the 60s and 70s.

Estonian Music Days 2023
The Last Words is made of contrasts and contradictions; of strong voices on opposite sides. Pieces in this program are almost like manifestos, by composers who believe in different voices but believe them whole-heartedly and passionately. Some soft, some harsh, some gentle, some tough. The World premiere of pieces by Age Veeroos and Israeli/Swedish Dror Feiler and Arash Yazdani, are combined by the Tallinn premiere of Toivo Tulev and Sander Saarmets. Estonian celebrated soprano Kädy Plaas will accompany ENMT in the performance of Toivo Tulev’s piece on the last 6 words that were uttered by Henry David Thoreau before his death. The last words were “Now comes good sailing, moose, Indian”.

ENMT show at Tallinn Music Week 2023 Von Krahl Theatre
The performance which was praised as such:
“With all of the unexpected (here’s that word again) things that the Tallinn Music Week offered this year, the performance of the Ensemble for New Music Tallinn (ENMT) might have been on top of everything in this aspect.
Not being sure what instruments they played – though being sure it would be great to hear them again – it was best to ask ENMT about it, so here’s the full programme linked to their earlier performances:
– Jeff A. Brown – motion harmony #6 (for 4 pendulums)
– Hugo Morales Murgia – Topspin Plasma (bug zappers and cymbals)
– Arash Yazdani – Instruction Manual of How to Learn Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb in 5 minutes (for 4 otamatones).
Otamatones were the best…”

The intersonanzen festival association is the official association of new music composers and a centre for contemporary music in Brandenburg, supporting and initiating many music events in the state. Founded in 1990, it has been one of the most important pioneers of contemporary music in Brandenburg, bringing together composers, musicologists, musicians and music teachers from Potsdam, the Frankfurt/Oder and Cottbus regions.
Through the “intersonanzen” festival, the members of the association offer composers the opportunity to write new compositions and collaborate with various international ensembles. The programme of the festival is a collaboration between the members of the composers’ association and the guest ensembles.

With Pieces from Estonia and Russia, Ensemble for New Music Tallinn (ENMT) will be performed the program that includes works of composers from two neighboring countries with much common history, yet with a highly variable, personal and individual sounding. What is sound? How the different composers define, treat or understand it? And how all these questions alongside many other concerns will affect the outcome of music and thus the audience? ENMT is committed on bringing the fresh and less experienced music to a wider audience, with emphasizing the aspects of new music that have not become contaminated by mainstream or institutionalization. The highlight of the program are world premiere of newly written pieces by Estonian composer Märt-Matis Lill, Estonian based Iranian composer Arash Yazdani and young Russian composer Artur Zobnin. These pieces are commissioned by ENMT for this project.
Moreover on the program will be performed pieces of well-known Greek-French composer Iannis Xenakis, Russian composerAlexander Radvilovich and the young emerging composer Jeff Brown . All the pieces in this program have a common and clear motif on sound, however being treated differently.
The concert takes place on Wednesday 3rd of December, at Erarta Museum and Galleries of Contemporary Art in St. Petersburg and is organized by the Saint-Petersburg Contemporary Music Center .
Our performance is on 25th of April at Fundació Antoni Tàpies at 18:00!

ENMT presents the SANTUR project, to be premiered during Fresh Music Festival, AutumnFest of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre. Composers of the contemporary classical music are asked to write new pieces for ensemble and the Persian instrument of Santur.
Santur soloist Pooyan Ataei will join the ensemble from Iran, to be at the center of the program.
The special condition of Santur such as numerous strings and unusual non- western tuning gives a rare opportunity to the composers to discover new worlds beyond the possibilities of conventional ensemble instruments. Solving the challenges of combining these different worlds from where the groups of instruments belong, gives an extra tension and material for the pieces.
The program is:
Helena Tulve (Estonia) “Every spark is numbered I”
Matthias S. Krüger (Germany) “FlussII”
Märt-Matis Lill (Estonia) “You will become like me”
Magnus Bunnskog (Sweden) “Nur”

Ryan Beppel (United States) “Occupational Hazard”
Anna Romashkova (Russia) “Suspense 3”

ENMT will be featured in the International World Music Festival 2019 (ISCM) with a program of edgy multimedia works. The concert takes place on Sunday, 5th of May at 20:00, in Kanuti Gildi hall.
The dividing lines between various disciplines of arts were blurred and disappeared early in the past century. With artists liberately creating works that were hard to label within traditional definitions.
Slowly but surely this merger reached to the music world too. For many composers, music isn’t limited to auditory experience, but reaches beyond a barrage of sensation and cognition. From employing tools that were not meant to be used for music, to inventing means for making new category of sound exploitation.
This program includes several of those ground breaking composers that stepped out of realm of music and applied what could narrowly be called media.
The program also includes works of ISCM official selection.

The legendary Czech composer Alois Hàba, one of the forefathers of microtonl and alternative intonations music, has an array of pieces with various intonation systems.
An artefact in the National Museum in Prague, this 1936 harmonium was the engine behind many of Hàba’s staggering 6th-tone division pieces. Interestingly he composed only one piece for the harmonium, 6 pieces for 6th-tone harmonium. Until now this composition has never been performed in public, on the intended instrument it’s based on; we are performing these pieces in the program as well.
We are performing Hàba’s rarely heard 6 pieces, in addition to 6 new compositions for his harmonium and accompanying ensemble.
The composers who wrote new pieces for this project are:
Georg Friedrich Haas
Klaus Lang

The 6th edition of the festival experiments with new intonation ideas with a flavour of electroacoustic music. For the first time, a particular focus on music from Switzerland takes place in Tallinn and Berlin.
Festival’s highlights include the performances of Ensemble Phoenix Basel, as well as the hour-long piece for 9 keyboards and 9 computers by Enno Poppe. The full length performance of a special piece by Peter Ablinger, which was developed together with the flutist Erik Drescher, during the lock-downs, will receive its Estonian premiere by Mr. Drescher and Mr. Ablinger themselves. World premiere of pieces by Demetre Gamsachurdia, Aleksander Gabrys, Sami Klemola, Sander Saarmets, Matthias S. Krüger and Liisa Hõbepappel are other important events in Sound Plasma 2022.
Sound Plasma version 6 wants to explore a musical language that is not classical or established, even within the microtonal or intonation-based music. For this we found works, and composers, that fear not to use the old and the new and the technology and the tradition freely in order to create their special voice. Rather predictably a strong presence of electronic sounds emerged in our program.
The festival reaches out to the Swiss music scene not only because of the impeccable quality of the music/performances but because of the nurturing effect the Swiss musical culture has on developing special and uncompromisingly unique musical voices.
The current edition of the festival dares to explore a brand new point of view with a basis in the electronic, and sometimes corny, sounds of the 60s and 70s.

Estonian Music Days 2023
The Last Words is made of contrasts and contradictions; of strong voices on opposite sides. Pieces in this program are almost like manifestos, by composers who believe in different voices but believe them whole-heartedly and passionately. Some soft, some harsh, some gentle, some tough. The World premiere of pieces by Age Veeroos and Israeli/Swedish Dror Feiler and Arash Yazdani, are combined by the Tallinn premiere of Toivo Tulev and Sander Saarmets. Estonian celebrated soprano Kädy Plaas will accompany ENMT in the performance of Toivo Tulev’s piece on the last 6 words that were uttered by Henry David Thoreau before his death. The last words were “Now comes good sailing, moose, Indian”.

ENMT show at Tallinn Music Week 2023 Von Krahl Theatre
The performance which was praised as such:
“With all of the unexpected (here’s that word again) things that the Tallinn Music Week offered this year, the performance of the Ensemble for New Music Tallinn (ENMT) might have been on top of everything in this aspect.
Not being sure what instruments they played – though being sure it would be great to hear them again – it was best to ask ENMT about it, so here’s the full programme linked to their earlier performances:
– Jeff A. Brown – motion harmony #6 (for 4 pendulums)
– Hugo Morales Murgia – Topspin Plasma (bug zappers and cymbals)
– Arash Yazdani – Instruction Manual of How to Learn Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb in 5 minutes (for 4 otamatones).
Otamatones were the best…”

The intersonanzen festival association is the official association of new music composers and a centre for contemporary music in Brandenburg, supporting and initiating many music events in the state. Founded in 1990, it has been one of the most important pioneers of contemporary music in Brandenburg, bringing together composers, musicologists, musicians and music teachers from Potsdam, the Frankfurt/Oder and Cottbus regions.
Through the “intersonanzen” festival, the members of the association offer composers the opportunity to write new compositions and collaborate with various international ensembles. The programme of the festival is a collaboration between the members of the composers’ association and the guest ensembles.

Tallinna Uue Muusika Ansambel (TUMA) on asutatud 2013. aastal ning on rahvusvaheliselt aktiivseim Eesti nüüdismuusika ansambel. TUMA on möödunud aastate jooksul teinud läbi tähelepanuväärse arengu ning on tänaseks kujunenud üheks Põhja- ja Baltimaade juhtivaks kaasaegse muusika ansambliks.
2026. aastal pälvis ansambel Ernst von Siemensi Muusikafondi Ensemble Prize preemia.
Ansambel on fikseerimata koosseisuga, olles tähtis platvorm uue muusika kogemiseks ja heliloojate võimaluste avardamiseks. Oma tegevusaastate jooksul on TUMA toonud kuulajateni olulise osa nüüdismuusikast ning pakkunud kaasaegsetele loojatele väljundit oma loomingu esmaesitamiseks nii kohalikul kui rahvusvahelisel areenil.
TUMA on tõestanud ennast erinevate intonatsioonisüsteemide ja meediume ühendava muusika esitajana ning on spetsialiseerunud väga kõrget mängutehnilist taset nõudvatele kaasaegsetele heliteostele. Ansambli repertuaaris on kokku enam kui sada nüüdisteost, millest väga suur osa on kirjutatud spetsiaalselt TUMA-le. Seejuures on aasta-aastalt kasvanud ka ansambli poolt tellitavate teoste arv heliloojailt üle maailma.
