ENSEMBLE FOR DIFFERENT NEW MUSIC gave its first concert on December 7, 1977 at the Students' Cultural Centre in Belgrade. The program consisted of minimalist pieces by Milos Raickovic, including his Permutations for 3 pianos, 18-hands. Ensemble soon started performing music by other Belgrade composers, Katarina Miljkovic, Miroslav Savic, Miodrag Lazarov, Milimir Draskovic, Vladimir Tosic, Marijan Sijanec, and others. With the support of Miroslav Savic, the music director at the Students' Cultural Centre at that time, Ensemble gave concerts across Yugoslavia as well as in Hungary, Austria and Italy. It also performed Raickovic's works at the Music Biennale Zagreb in 1979. The Ensemble has recorded for Radio and TV, and has released LPs with works by Robert Moran and several Belgrade composers.
After a long period of inactivity, Ensemble was revived in 2017. A concert, marking the 40th anniversary from their first concert, was held at the Students' Cultural Centre in Belgrade, featuring new and old works by Milos Raickovic and Miroslav Savic. A very enthusiastic reaction by the audience gave the Ensemble new energy to continue performing. In June and July of 2018, the Ensemble had a mini-tour across several cities in Serbia, called "Meditations for pianos - 24 hands." Ensemble for Different New Music is active again, connecting some of the original members with the musicians of the new generations.
