Composers’ competition – Composers’ weekend
Every year, the composers’ competition Op weg naar het Nieuwjaarsconcert proves its power. Each year, the NBE receives masterpieces from dozens of talented young composers.
THIRD ROUND | COMPOSERS’ WEEKEND WITH NBE
In this weekend, all selected composers and NBE musicians meet. It is a weekend full of rehearsals, games and workshops. Each day ends with a concert in which the composers together with the NBE perform their own composition for an audience. After each concert, 5 composers are chosen who are guaranteed a place in the Finale.
The Finale will take place on Sunday, December 22 in TivoliVredenburg in Utrecht.
