OUR MISSION STATEMENT

We are a group of composers actively seeking to provide new experiences for audiences and performers everywhere. Our initiative includes members across the globe creating fresh and engaging new music for all types of ensembles and media, with various concentrations in both acoustic and electronic music. We strive to push the limits of what defines music through experimental and conventional means.

HISTORY

The Millennium Composers Initiative is an ever-changing, growing, and expanding group striving to represent all composers regardless of aesthetic, style, or background. The initiative was founded by Josh Trentadue and Duncan Petersen-Jones in 2018 and began as a group of five young composers from the United States. Since then, it has rapidly expanded to include many more composers from all around the world.
Each of the members in MCI Composers have individually attended world-renowned festivals, conferences, institutes, and workshops. They have also had the opportunity to collaborate with world-renowned ensembles, directors, artists, and performers through new commissions, world premieres, and additional performances.
