"The Boston New Music Initiative demonstrated a commitment to new music firmly rooted in both classical and contemporary traditions. While the audience may come to the Boston New Music Initiative’s season with little familiarity with the featured composers, they will certainly leave each performance with reasons to be enthusiastic about new music."
–Boston Music Intelligencer
"There is a vitality about the Boston New Music Initiative that is unique in contemporary music. It takes risks, it does not fall into the complacency of consensus, and it thrives on a shared desire of its membership to perfect the new." –Mike Solomon, composer
"After having worked with The Boston New Music Initiative on a couple presentations of my compositions, I can say that those involved have been consistently professional, organized, and extraordinarily devoted to realizing new works. BNMI is paving a very special path between its community and contemporary music, and I certainly look forward to following its future seasons!" –Mary Kouyoumdjian, composer and Executive Director of Hotel Elefant
"It was a privilege to have the thoughtful, energetic musicians of BNMI perform my music. With a grassroots establishment of committed and enthusiastic performers and composers running the show, BNMI boldly presents concerts across the entire spectrum of contemporary music – it's new music done right!" –Peter Van Zandt Lane, composer
"I can't stress enough the dedication and professionalism that goes into running the Boston New Music Initiative. They are revitalizing the new music scene in Boston and beyond. It's always a pleasure to partner with this up-and-coming organization!" –Leaha Maria Villarreal, composer & Artistic Director of Hotel Elefant
