About SoundNOW Festival

SoundNOW is a festival dedicated to showcasing the best of the contemporary classical music scene in Atlanta!

About Terminus Ensemble

Terminus Ensemble of Contemporary Music was founded in 2011 to promote new classical music by composers based in Atlanta, Georgia. As the end of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, Terminus was the original name of Atlanta; however, "terminus" does not only mean "the end", but also "boundary." In this spirit, our ensemble seeks to explore the boundaries of contemporary art music while showcasing music made primarily by natives and residents of Atlanta.
