Random Access Music

Random Access Music (RAM) is a New York City-based composers' collective. Its current members are David Fetherolf, Gilbert Galindo, Jonathan Pieslak, David Schober, B. Allen Schulz, Wang Jie, and Stefan Weisman.
The group was founded in 2007 by composer Allen Schulz. RAM produces three concert programs of its members' music each season. Two of these concerts are in collaboration with notable new music ensembles or performers, and the member-composers of RAM write 5 or 6 new works specifically for the collaborating ensemble or individual artist. The remaining concert presents recent, but previously-performed works or on-going projects by the member-composers. RAM's composers have written new works for diverse groups and artists, including, Anubis Saxophone Quartet, Austin Symphony concert master Jessica Mathaes, Iktus Percussion Ensemble, the Lost Dog New Music Ensemble, cellist Kate Dillingham, the Parthenia Viol Consort, and Thomas Piercy's Gotham Ensemble.
Other activities by RAM include a yearly call for scores and the Queens New Music Festival—a 4 day festival with 9 concerts by established ensembles and individual artists such as violinist Todd Reynolds, Face The Music, clarinetist Thomas Piercy, and others.
