Hi there fellow new music people,

As I'm eschewing most social media these days, i'm looking for alternative ways to engage with stuff that matters to me, going to try this subreddit as a space for my own new music ventures as well as hearing from others.

I'm a composer and the current Executive Director of Versipel New Music, a result of merging my own sole-proprietor org nienteForte with the existing nonprofit (Versipel New Music) this past summer.

This past September we launched Batture Contemporary, a Louisiana-based new music festival, where we did a CFS for anyone living or studying in Louisiana. It was four concerts over three days. The performance videos from that festival are being released mostly daily on our YouTube channel throughout December as part of our end-of-year fundraiser. I'm trying to increase our awareness/reach, so please engage with our content - like/subscribe/comment.

If you are or will be Louisiana-based, look for a CFS announcement this coming April/May for our second iteration of the festival taking place in September of 2026.

Looking forward to seeing this subreddit grow. Kudos to u/NewtComprehensive247 for being motivated to put this up.

Hi, I'm the ED of Versipel New Music from NOLA, and I'm releasing videos from the first year of our local new music festival throughout the month as a part of a fundraiser.
