ABOUT UMA
Our Mission
The Unprecedented Music Association (UMA) is a collective of composers and musicians dedicated to bringing joy, beauty, and fresh experiences to audiences of Southern California through performances of new music.
Our Vision
We envision a world where our collaboration and commitment to artistic excellence as young composers and musicians culminates in unprecedented and transformative performances of music that inspires others to also break free from perceived or imposed expectations.
Our Values
-
We believe that composers, musicians, and music should not be constrained by preconceived notions or philosophies of genre, labels, and academia.
-
We believe that as musicians, the diversity of our experiences and backgrounds enriches and inspires artistic creation both in ourselves and in our community.
-
We believe that creating a platform for young artists to have their voices heard is the vehicle by which true progress in the arts is made.
-
We believe in creating musical experiences that enrich the lives of all audiences, regardless of their level of musical experience.
