COMPOSER COLLIDER EUROPE 2020 - CLOSING EVENTS
with Ensemble Musikfabrik
November 2021 | Köln, Germany
This collaboration between Ensemble Musikfabrik, the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz of Köln, The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and Het Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag is going on since 2017. All the participants were waiting for this Final Tour to come. Due to international Corona regulations the tour originally planned in Greece, Germany and The Netherlands will take place in a different form. All the participants will go to Köln and there will be professional studio recording session for each composition and the instructions for the spielBar workshops will be filmed in small tutorials to be made available to the public. Fortunately, the Production found an alternative way to do it. I hope for the best for everyone.
