Nova Linea Musica

Nova Linea Musica brings people together through the commissioning of new music with today's leading artists. Each concert in our 2026-27 season features a newly commissioned world premiere. We design our events to shorten the space between the stage and the audience.
A Home for New Music: Our concerts take place at Chicago's own intimate Guarneri Hall, known for exceptional acoustics and a welcoming atmosphere. Each evening features a performance of works from the mid-20th century to today, anchored by a newly commissioned world premiere, followed by a post-concert Q&A led by the evening's composer. A reception with thoughtfully prepared cuisine and fine wine follows, with time to mingle with the artists.
