Sounds of Now Vienna - Contemporary Music Festival

Sounds of Now Vienna is a festival dedicated to the creation and performance of new music. At SONV, we invite aspiring composers to hone their craft and meet new colleagues in one of the world’s most prominent capitals of contemporary music.

This year, we will be working with performers and ensembles such as Mivos Quartet and former ICE flutist Eric Lamb. Workshop participants can expect two intensive weeks of individual lessons, presentations, and seminars with our renowned international faculty, and concerts featuring world-class resident ensembles and soloists.

The workshop will be held at the University of Music and Performing Arts (mdw) in Vienna, Austria. Participating composers will write a new work for one of our resident ensembles or soloists, who will actively workshop and rehearse the pieces with each composer and offer their feedback. Participants will receive high-quality audio and video documentation of their performed works.

Tuition includes accommodation throughout the duration of the festival and most meals. There is no fee to apply.

DURATION: 15-26 July, 2024
DEADLINE TO APPLY: 15 March, 2024
