The BlackBox Ensemble is a New York City-based, flexible-instrumentation contemporary music collective. We produce projects that aim to resonate with our cultural and political present, advocate for social justice causes, and push the experimental boundaries of the music of our time. In doing so, we are committed to championing some of today’s most powerful emerging composers through close collaboration.
