YInMn Project
21st c. pigment • 21st c. music • 21st c. folks
Founded in Atlanta in 2018, the YInMn Project has a twofold mission: first, to craft annual, day-long new-music festivals in unsaturated cities, using so intimate and engaging a design, so broad and relatable a mix of musical styles, that these events might be accessible to the most and least exposed of a city’s residents, whether those be composers, young suburban families, or kids from underprivileged areas; and second, to develop those cities’ existing new-music scenes, expanding local groups’ audience base while allowing them to develop relationships with professional new-music ensembles from outside their region.
At its heart, YInMn is about inspiring individuals and building community: it’s about motivating young musicians to explore new avenues of performance; allowing music-lovers to discover fresh, invigorating modes of listening; and ultimately reducing barriers between art-lovers and art-creators.
