Young Composers’ Forum
In cooperation with the Bavarian Academy of Fine Arts
On the initiative of and in cooperation with the Bavarian Academy of Fine Arts, the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation has established the Young Composers’ Forum. Within this framework, a young composer is to be presented with a commissioned composition. As curator of the concert, the selected artist will also develop the programme for the premiere with music of the 20th and 21st centuries in consultation with the Academy’s Music Department. The project serves to promote young talent as well as to expand the repertoire for contemporary music.
