Three international commissions that show the different artistic-aesthetic paths of three composers all coming from the school of Lachenmann: Gianluca Ulivelli, Josè Luis Torá, Jan Kopp. The concerts will be completed with music by Mark Andre, also Lachenmann’s student, who will be awarded the Gamo Musica prize. The project will also include educational activities held both by composers and musicians.The project is inspired by the idea of starting and consolidating a collaboration between GAMO and Suono Giallo to promote the diffusion of contemporary music and is aimed at improving listening capabilities with traditional and innovative vehicles for both senior and younger generations, called to discover the charm and complexity of contemporary music.  The objective of the three new commissions is that of giving an overview of part of the European panorama of contemporary music by composers who developed original and innovative aesthetics and styles even though they share the educational background of studying with Lachenmann.
