Seven composers from four different regions – Timisoara, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Iasi – want to show that contemporary music is by no means hermetic and inaccessible to lay audiences, but on the contrary: it is lively, colorful and capable of generating strong emotions. “You don’t have to be a musician to fall in love with contemporary music, nor do you have to have a musical background to enjoy modern musical languages. You just have to have curious ears and an open mind“, the project team announced publicly MUSIC.

Therefore, all curious people between the ages of 16 and 116 are welcome to zoom into the new music with the UVT musicians and their friends from April 8th.
