Four new pieces of music inspired by the idea of \u2018renewability\u2019 will be commissioned from selected composers representing the Visegrad Group countries. The commissioned pieces will be performed at four different concerts (in Warsaw, Prague, Bratislava, and Budapest), each by a local ensemble, whose members will be joined by musicians from partner countries as part of the international artist exchange programme. The concerts will take place in locations that will be adapted to the unique conditions of open-air concert sites, reflecting each location&#8217;s bond with the surrounding environment. The concerts will be accompanied by workshops, masterclasses, open rehearsals and lectures. The project will be summed up by an international conference devoted to the ideas of ecology and sustainable development in music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Concert sites and ensembles<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Poland<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buw.uw.edu.pl\/en\/aboutus\/building-and-garden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Roof Garden of the University of Warsaw Library<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/hashtag-ensemble.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Hashtag Ensemble<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Czechia<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prague.eu\/en\/object\/places\/538\/large-strahov-garden-velkastrahovska-zahrada\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Large Strahov Gardens in Prague<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/berg.cz\/en\/about_orch.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Berg Orchestra<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slovakia<br><a href=\"https:\/\/nivy.com\/en\/green-roof\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Green Roof at the Bratislava Nivy Bus Station<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/ensemblespectrum.sk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">EnsembleSpectrum<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hungary<br><a href=\"https:\/\/magyarzenehaza.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">The House Of Music in Budapest<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/umze.hu\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">UMZE Ensemble<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Submission Guidelines<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The call is open to composers up to 35 years of age (born after 1 March 1988) representing the Visegrad Group countries (citizens of Poland, Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary, living in the country and abroad).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new works for chamber music ensemble of 7 up to 10 instruments to be chosen from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-ast-global-color-8-color has-text-color\">flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon \/ French horn, trumpet, trombone \/ small percussion instruments \/ violin, viola, cello, double bass<br>with optional use of electronics<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>will be commissioned from selected composers.
