The Ensemble has thirteen recordings to date, including New Electro-Acoustic Music , Near Distance, Music of Carter, Davies, and Druckman , and Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire . Significant performance sites have included the Kennedy Center, Avery Fisher Hall under the auspices of the New York Philharmonic, as well as museums and universities across the country. Central to the Ensemble's success is the conviction that contemporary music, thoughtfully programmed and imaginatively performed, can reach both the specialist and an unitiated audience. Each member of the Ensemble is a virtuosic solo performer, yet at the heart of the group is the cooperation and mutual inspiration that the players receive from each other. The Ensemble has garnered critical applause in recent years for increasing audiences for contemporary music, supporting composers through commissions and performances and making lasting records of important music.
