2-6 October, 2023, Budapest, Hungary
The Peter Eötvös Contemporary Music Foundation announces a workshop for
conductors and composers between 2-6 October 2023, in Budapest (Hungary).
Selected active conductors and mentees of the Foundation will have the
possibility to work on a piece by Hans Abrahamsen and a new piece by mentee
composer Sebastian Black during rehearsals and live performance, too. The
program also includes a piece by Balázs Horváth, board member of the
foundation, and regular professor of the masterclasses, Professor Horváth is
teaching at Franz Liszt Academy of Music.
Due to the ongoing pandemic cancellations changes are possible in the program.
Before traveling make sure to get all the details of the latest travel regulations as
these may change quite frequently. To enter our masterclass you have to be fully
vaccinated with a proven record. Currently there are no mask mandates and
other restrictions in place in Hungary or at the Budapest Music Center.
Hans Abrahamsen has more than once had the courage to stop, and the equal
courage to start again – freshly, out of a clear reconsideration of where he was
before. His allegiances are shown by the roll of composers whose works he has,
as a master orchestrator, reconceived: Bach and Ligeti, Nielsen and Schumann,
Schoenberg and Debussy.
The call is open for conductors and composers of all nationalities.
Age limit for active conductors and composers is 35 years, observers
(conductors and composers) are accepted without age limit.
The course is suitable for advanced students and professionals with special
interest in contemporary music repertoire.
