Program Overview
Universitť de Montrťal / Facultť de musique
The Universitť de Montrťal's Faculty of Music offers a unique program for students interested in contemporary music.
Ensemble de musique contemporaine
The Ensemble de musique contemporaine (EMC) is an instrumental ensemble composed of 15 to 25 soloists selected by audition. For a period of two years, each soloist benefits from personalized mentorship by the musicians of the Nouvel Ensemble Moderne (NEM), a resident ensemble at the Faculty of Music, as part of a professionalizing course in contemporary music.
The student collective that forms this ensemble also receives the mandate to reflect on the different means of creating music today. As future actors in a vision of tomorrow's music, the soloists of the EMC have the opportunity to participate in collaborative projects with students in composition and sound creation, as well as research projects from the Faculty of Music.
