Etica is dedicated to the performance of the works of established 20th and 21st century Australian and international composers. Etica aims to bring uncompromising finesse and authority to its performances and presentations, bringing intellectual rigour, technical command and interpretive confidence to the performance of new music. The ensemble is committed to providing excellent interpretations of new chamber music and will, where possible, work in close collaboration with composers as a vital process in ensuring excellence in performance.
