Works by young composers, participating in the impuls Academy this year, are in the center of attention tonight. The compositions, partly also sketches, have already been selected in advance through various Calls for Scores, such as for the Trio Accanto line-up, coached by Christian Dierstein, Nicolas Hodges and Marcus Weiss, and for saxophone trio, quartet and quintet, coached by Marcus Weiss. At the Academy they have undergone discussions and feedback rounds, and in an intensive exchange with the young musicians on spot and of course the active support of the impuls coaching team, part of them are now ready to be presented. The program is completed by further works for piano and percussion solo as well as by a piece by impuls tutor Francesco Filidei for six performing percussionists, coached by Nicolas Hodges respectively Christian Dierstein, and of course composer Francesco Filidei.
