Connecting Calgarians through exploratory music, sound, and interdisciplinary performance.

Our Mission

We cultivate curiosity by elevating and sharing exploratory music and interdisciplinary art with wide-eared artists, performers, and listeners in Calgary and beyond.

Our Values

·      We support the creation of exploratory music, and cross-disciplinary 

        artistic expression.

·      We work with a spirit of exploration, curiosity, and openness.

·      We embrace relationality, building a sense of fascination and belonging 

        through music and community connection.

·      We strive for artistic integrity in all we do.

What do we mean by ‘exploratory’ music?

Music that is cultivated with an experimental ethos, but isn’t limited to any one culture, tradition, or genre.  While New Works Calgary has historically presented new music in the classical tradition, we are consciously choosing to shed this label as we strive towards the creation of a more inclusive, diverse, and equitable listening culture.
