Description: NEW MUSIC AWARDS 1991 LAMINATE. NEW MUSIC SEMINAR. MADONNA WAS ON THE PANEL. The New Music Seminar (NMS) is a Music Conference and Festival held annually each June in New York City. The New Music Seminar originally ran from 1980 to 1995 and was relaunched in 2009. NMS features over 150 CEOs and other executives, presidents, and other leaders in the emerging music business along with over 100 artist performances. The New Music Seminar added music showcases and a festival, initially called "New York Nights" and later, "New Music Nights." These were held in various New York City clubs. At its peak, the first series of seminars attracted more than 8,000 participants from 35 countries. Haoui Montaug was panel director of the NMS at the time of his 1991 death. Following his death, the NMS inaugurated the Haoui Montag New Music Awards in his honour. Haoui Montaug (1952 – June 7, 1991) was a doorman of the New York City nightclubs Hurrah, Danceteria, Studio 54, and the Palladium. Montaug also ran roving cabaret revue No Entiendes which showcased among others a young Madonna and early performances by the Beastie Boys. Suffering from AIDS, in June 1991 Montaug invited 20 guests to celebrate his suicide at his loft apartment in the Bowery neighborhood in Manhattan. His apartment was located at the corner of the Bowery and East 2nd Street. In addition to the guests present, Madonna was at the party via telephone from Los Angeles. Montaug had previously introduced Madonna at the performance for her music video for "Everybody" in the early 1980s. At the gathering Montaug swallowed five Seconal barbiturate pills, and went into a deep labored sleep, but kept breathing, to the dismay of the guests. His guests remained the next morning when he awoke in a fury. Montaug swallowed 20 more pills and died within half an hour.
