Celebrating New Music: Let’s play together

Leuven, 3 and 4 March 2018

Contemporary music can be played by anyone, from young to old, from beginner to professional player. But where and how to find suitable music and fellow players.

Together Matrix Centre for New Music in Leuven (Belgium) and CoMAMaastricht join the British FESTIVAL OF CONTEMPORARY MUSIC FOR ALL that takes place at the same time in 14 different locations.

Everybody can join the two Allcomers Events that will take place on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 March. The music is very well playable by amateur musicians and is written for flexible ensemble.

On Friday 2 March Matrix organises a mini-conference for music teachers and other professionals working in the field of music and education.

All (amateur) musicians can participate in the Allcomers Events, regardless of their technical abilities (parts will be adjusted if needed). All instruments are welcome. Transposed parts will be provided.

On Saturday 3 March we will be working on compositions for flexible ensemble, led by the professional conductor Thomas Moore.

On Sunday 4 March we abandon the ‘classical’ note picture and embark on adventures into the world of open structures, graphic scores, sound painting……..  with Bert Bernaerts as our inspiring guide.
