Fear No Music

Mission

Fear No Music promotes music education through the high-quality public performance of modern and contemporary classical music, and by offering groundbreaking youth mentorship in composition. Comprised of highly talented musicians, this flexible chamber music ensemble champions living composers and exposes audiences to new music being made both locally and globally through a uniquely relevant annual concert series. The group educates and trains the next generation of young composers in our community through its Young Composers Project. As a public advocate for global peace and equity, Fear No Music leverages its platforms for healing, activism, and social justice.

Bottom Line for Portland

By offering donation-based performances of the greatest chamber music of our time, Fear No Music expands, diversifies, and inspires audiences while supporting the work of local and underrepresented composers. Through its groundbreaking Young Composers Project, the organization mentors and promotes the next generation of young composers, fostering creativity, confidence, and craft. With a focus on socially relevant programming, Fear No Music creates community connection, healing, and catharsis.
