The Composers Conference is a summer program that embraces collaborative music creation by musicians at the beginning of their careers, those that are well-established, and those for whom music is an important part of their lives. The Composers Conference nurtures the creation, performance, and appreciation of music, serving as a catalyst for conscientious creativity through shared wisdom, expertise, and diverse artistry.

The Composers Conference celebrates chamber music through its myriad programs: the Fromm Foundation Composer Fellows, the Fromm Foundation Contemporary Performance Institute, the Chamber Music Workshop, New Music New Communities, New Music Conducting Fellow, and the Conference Ensemble.
