The The New Yogyakarta Contemporary Ensemble was founded in October 2017 by leading Indonesian cellist Asep Hidayat. The members of the ensemble play both western as well as Indonesian music. Their uniqueness lies in their desire to transfer: they take up traditions from other countries and do not hesitate to translate them into a new language. Although the New Ensemble Contemporary Yogyakarta has not existed for so long, its reputation has grown beyond the boundaries of Indonesia.
