| Festival Description | The Ostrava Center For New Music (OCNM) was initiated by Petr Kotik in 1999 as a result of a series of performances with the Janacek Philharmonic Orchestra of music by Earle Brown, John Cage, Alvin Lucier, Pauline Oliveros, Martin Smolka and Karlheinz Stockhausen. OCNM was formed to produce Ostrava Days, a summer institute and festival which gives emerging composers, performers, and musicologists an opportunity to work with leading personalities of contemporary music. Ostrava Days takes place every two years (odd numbered months) providing a working and educational environment focusing on compositions for orchestra. Ostrava Center For New Music also produces concerts and publications related to new music. |
