About us

Leith New Music is an unconventional locally curated series of new/contemporary music performance events in Edinburgh. 

The public performances showcase new works by emerging artists from all music and cultural backgrounds, performed by a curating resident contemporary music ensemble at each event. The artists are given the opportunity to workshop their new pieces with the musicians prior to the performance. The evening also features performances by local interdisciplinary artists from wide practices including electronic music, dance, and free improvisation.

The events are informal, accessible and fun! We hope this creative melting pot provides a platform for artists and audience from wide variety of cultural and musical backgrounds to engage, network and celebrate creativity. 

The Committee

The Committee members are responsible for the programming, selection of scores, design and delivery of events, and communications.

Emma, Chris and Atzi would like to welcome anyone interested in joining our in-person programming discussions. We are local artists putting the events on in our spare time, but we strive to be transparent and open. It's also a great way to meet and get to know each other!
