To this end, Arraymusic has fostered, performed, commissioned, toured, promoted, taught and recorded Canadian contemporary classical music (new music) within an international context for four decades. Array supports young and emerging composers, fosters innovation in music, and creates a space and platform for creative music artists working in all the genres to call home. These are hallmarks of Array.

Arraymusic provides a well-​equipped affordable rental facility, The Array Space, for musical artists to rehearse, record and present their music.

Array welcomes emerging composers to impact its processes and techniques. Therefore, Array is constantly adapting to — and in this way impacting — new technologies, instrumentations, distribution means, and society’s perception of music creation.
