How does new music sound in corona times? At the suggestion of conductor Daniel Barenboim and flutist Emmanuel Pahud from the Berlin Philharmonic, ten contemporary composers such as Austrian Olga Neuwirth and her German colleague Jörg Widmann want to present their works written during the pandemic.
The presentation of the premieres from July 9th to 12th in the Pierre Boulez Saal in Berlin should be freely available at www.boulezsaal.de. According to Barenboim, the parties involved are making their works available free of charge. With this they wanted to set an example for the meaning of a lively musical life. (apa / dpa)
