New Music Organizing Caucus (NMOC) is a community of musicians and workers who work in the contemporary, classical music-adjacent creative world of “new music.” We exist to advocate for decent working conditions and fair wages, provide support against discriminatory practices, share skills and knowledge, and fight for diversity, equity and inclusion in our field. We are allied with Music Workers Alliance, New Music Equity Action, Sing In Solidarity, Local 802 AFM, and DANC.
During the summer of 2020, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and the protests in the wake of the murder of George Floyd, NMOC came together to begin long-overdue conversations about race, class, access and privledge in the new music world. Our goal is to use our collective power to address these systemic inequalities inherent in our field, and to create a more just, kind, and honest way of making music together. We are just getting started. Join us!
