TheInternational Society for Contemporary Music (ISCM) is a music organization that promotescontemporary classical music.

The organization was established inSalzburg in 1922 asInternationale Gesellschaft für Neue Musik (IGNM) following theInternationale Kammermusikaufführungen Salzburg, a festival of modern chamber music held as part of the Salzburg Festival.[1]It was founded by the Austrian (later British) composerEgon Wellesz and the Cambridge academicEdward J Dent, who first met when Wellesz visited England in 1906.[2][3]

In 1936 the rival Permanent Council for the International Co-operation of Composers, set up underRichard Strauss, was accused of furtheringNazi Party cultural ambitions in opposition to the non-political ISCM.[4] British composerHerbert Bedford, acting as co-Secretary, defended its neutrality.[5]

Aside from hiatuses in 1940 and 1943-5 due toWorld War II and in 2020–21 due to the globalCOVID-19 pandemic, the ISCM's core activity has been an annual festival of contemporary classical music held every year at a different location, the first of which took place in 1923 in Salzburg, which has come to be known as theISCM World Music Days (sometimes World New Music Days, abbreviated either WMD or WNMD depending on which name is used). There have been a total of 92 of these thus far, the most recent of which took place inTallinn,Estonia in May 2019. The 2021 WMD in Shanghai and Nanning has been postponed until March 2022[6] and the 2022 WNMD is scheduled to take place inNew Zealand in August 2022.[7]

Each year, during the World Music Days. ISCM members also convene in a General Assembly. Membership in the ISCM is organized through national sections that promote contemporary music in each country. These sections are usually organizations independent from the ISCM that send delegates to the ISCM General Assembly. Each member of the national section is also a member of ISCM and may send in 6 works that are evaluated for performance at the World Music Days. National organizations that promote contemporary music, but have not been designated as the nation section of ISCM, are sometimes given an associate membership status. This status also applies to the members of these organizations. Some individual music professionals receive the "honorary membership" status. The ISCM is governed by an executive committee consisting of seven people; two (Secretary General and Treasurer) are appointed positions and the remaining five (President, Vice President, and three regular members) are chosen from and by the delegates in an election during the General Assembly.[8]

Since 1991, the ISCM has also published an annualWorld New Music Magazine, a print publication that is distributed to its members for further dissemination. A total of 28 issues have been produced. Recent magazine issues are available as digitally downloadable PDFs from the ISCM's website.[9] ISCM is a member of theInternational Music Council. The current members of the executive committee of the ISCM (as of the June 2025 General Assembly which took place at the O'culto de Ajuda in Lisbon, Portugal) are:Frank J. Oteri (USA), President; Rebecca Diependaele (Belgium), Vice President; Oľga Smetanova (Slovakia), Secretary General; David Pay (Canada), Treasurer; Chialin Pan (Taiwan); Magnus Bunnskog (Sweden); Deborah Keyser (Wales), and Wolfgang Renzl (Austria), Legal Counsel.[10]
