Ung Nordisk Musik is an annual festival presenting the youngest generation of Nordic composers and sound artists. In addition to presenting their works, the festival offers artists the opportunity to share experiences and network across borders. Each year the festival rotates to another country (Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland) and is produced by that country’s UNM board.
