Contemporary Music Academy

The programme for each participant includes the preparation of a short solo piece, a chamber music and a tutti piece by different inspiring composers such as Tom Johnson, Gérard Pesson, Julián Ávila, Martyna Kosecka, Catherine Kontz and William Engelen.
The chamber and tutti pieces are being prepared for a concert taking place on Saturday 19 November as part of the programme of the festival rainy days 2022. During this event the participants will share the neimënster’s stage with the Lucilin musicians.

The Contemporary Music Academy by Lucilin is organised with the support and collaboration of neimënster, and the festival rainy days/Philharmonie Luxembourg.
