In 2017 a small group of friends with a shared passion for contemporary music formed an ensemble dedicated to discovering and showcasing modern works. Balance Campaign has been using adventurous programming, commissioning, and educational outreach to advocate for new music in the D.C./Baltimore area ever since.
The group has performed an array of works by living composers, including Marc Mellits, Missy Mazzoli, Nico Muhly, and Steven Mackey. Committed to commissioning new works, they are currently collaborating with composer and Maryland-native, Nathan Lincoln-DeCusatis, to premiere a new composition for the ensemble this Spring.
Balance Campaign has performed at intimate local spots like An die Musik, offered composer workshops and performances at the University of Maryland - Baltimore, and looks forward to 2018-19 season highlights including performances at the University of District of Columbia on the “Off the Beaten Path Music Series,” a return to University of Maryland - Baltimore, and debuting new compositions as District New Music Coalition’s Ensemble in Residence.
