About this Event

COPE Collective New Music Festival


Join COPE Collective for our inagural COPEFEST

Featuring a lineup of NYC-based next-gen experimental artists and contemporary ensembles on our 3-day celebration of new music!


ABOUT COPE COLLECTIVE

COPE is a collective of composer-performers and creative professionals working together to make new music—free from the time, financial, and creative limits of the industry.

We operate through collaborative labor exchange: by contributing to each other’s projects, we bring new works to life. Together with 35+ East Coast-based artists, we’re creating a more equitable, supportive, and vibrant experimental music community.
