What Is Noise is an award-winning ensemble that has performed throughout the United States.

The ensemble made its Carnegie Hall debut in May of 2014 as part of their “American Stories” concert tour that included performances in Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and New York.

What Is Noise is passionate about building community by performing culturally relevant music and remains a strong advocate for new music and educational outreach.

What Is Noise is associated with Florida State University in Tallahassee, FL and has worked with composers Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, Don Freund, Lansing McLoskey, David T.

Little, Edward Knight, Tania Leon, Katherine Hoover, and Jennifer Higdon among others.

The ensemble has performed at a variety of venues including concerts at the Florida State University Biennial Festival of New Music, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, University of North Carolina at Asheville, George Mason University, Furman University, and the University of Missouri.

What Is Noise was recently featured as an ensemble-in-residence with the Taneycomo Festival Orchestra in Branson, MO and the guest artist in residence for the Young Composers Competition at Webster University in St.

Louis, MO.

Members of What Is Noise hail from Michigan, Connecticut, North Carolina, New York, Missouri, and South Korea.

The ensemble’s name comes from an idea expressed by Jacques Attali in his book Noise: The Political Economy of Music that music has lost some of its inherent social value, as it has increasingly become a commodity.

He expresses that there is intrinsic importance in the connection of the composers and performers with their shared community, and this is the way to obtain meaning through new composition.
