Dien je voorstel in voor Classical:NEXT
Classical:NEXT opens its search for the best, brightest and most forward-looking artists, projects, topics and interactive conference formats from all corners of the classical music world. It doesn’t matter if it’s early or contemporary, traditional or experimental, most importantly it’s heading “NEXT”.
Classical:NEXT is “by the community, for the community”: part of this equation is that the programme comes from music professionals themselves. All movers, shakers and everyday innovators from all sectors of the global art music scene are invited to submit their proposals for the project pitches, showcases and the conference.
All proposals will be considered by an independent jury of international experts – guaranteeing a neutral yet informed selection process. The jury’s final selection prioritises ensuring an optimal balance of geographical and gender representations, as well as themes, approaches and instrumentation.
Please submit by Friday, 06 October 2023.
