| Festival Description | soundSCAPE, formerly Known as the Cortona Contemporary Music Festival, takes place in Pavia, Italy in the Lombardy region. The Festival is dedicated to Sound, Composition, And Performance Exchange. The festival provides composers and musicians an international platform for performances of new music, attracting participants from around the world for an exciting week of lectures, master classes, and workshops. The 2008 festival offers performance studies and composition opportunities in flute, guitar, mandolin, piano, percussion, violin, and voice. The music of emerging composers is featured in open rehearsals, the Composition Colloquium, and in recorded performances. In turn, performers receive coaching from composers, complementing instruction in modern performance techniques from an internationally renowned faculty. The experiences of soundSCAPE resonate well beyond the festival, as participants develop a myriad of collaborative initiatives resulting in future commissions, performances, and careers. Please join us for a celebration of new music in 2008! |
