MATA is “the city’s leading showcase for vital new music by emerging composers.” – The New Yorker
“This year’s MATA Festival proved beyond a doubt that it’s still a strange world. Representing 19 composers from four continents, MATA is the contemporary classical equivalent of the U.N. General Assembly.” – Village Voice
The Programming of the 2012 MATA Festival was hailed as “a testament to MATA’s enduring mission and to the high standards maintained by its current directors, David T. Little and Yotam Haber” by The New York Times.
