During this week in Apeldoorn (March 1st- March 6th), 13 selected participants will come together. In preparation for the Meeting they will each write a three-minute piece for the orchestra. The week consists of rehearsals of these compositions, readings and individual lessons from our senior composers. The closing concert will take place at Podium GIGANT, featuring all the pieces. Afterwards, a jury of prominent composers will decide which four talented participants will win the composition commissions.
