For ten years, the Composer Seminar of the Lucerne Festival Academy — founded by Wolfgang Rihm and now led by Dieter Ammann and Unsuk Chin — has been a defining part of the Academy's work. To mark its anniversary, it is introducing a major change: from now on, participants will apply not with ensemble pieces but with works for orchestra. After all, composing for large forces demands a great deal of experience. Yet which young composer has the chance to work intensively with a professional orchestra? That is precisely what the Composer Seminar offers: six emerging composers from around the world discuss their pieces in individual coaching sessions and two public workshops, rehearse them with the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra (LFCO), and then present them in the Closing Concert on 23 August. In this way, they put their music to the test in a practical way and receive valuable feedback not only from the musicians and conductors but also from the audience.
