impuls . 12th International Ensemble and Composers Academy for Contemporary Music | 2021
Please note that, due to the ongoing COVID-19-pandemic, the impuls Academy needed to be moved into August 2021 in total. All places are taken by now. It is quite unlikely that we can still enlarge the program this year or that places might open up still. However if interested to join in August 2021, please feel free to get in touch or send an application, which we will take into consideration, whenever possible again.
