Founded in 2005, the concept of the Juventas new music ensemble began as a means to offer society at large an amazing opportunity to get to know the music by today's generation of young composers.

In attempting to fill this niche, Juventas is taking a fresh approach to presenting music. For example, we primarily perform pieces by composers under the age of 35, and we travel to many different venues in the process. This approach attracts a variety of people to experience music that otherwise might have only been available to listeners through an academic setting. Additionally, Juventas does not play any one specific style of music. As an ensemble, we are interested in exploring sounds from every possible direction; in fact, we intend to perform, over time, nearly every submission that we receive, so long as the instrumentation and difficulty is suitable to our capabilities.

Thank you and we hope to see you there!
