Luxembourg Composition Academy, Closing Concert
The Luxembourg Composition Academy is a one-of-a-kind event in Luxembourg, offering eight young composers the opportunity to create a new piece, guided by the musicians of the ensemble United Instruments of Lucilin and renowned composers. The academy’s program includes lectures, individual tutoring sessions with two guest composers, as well as workshops. Each participant is invited to write a piece for United Instruments of Lucilin. These compositions will be developed during the academy and premiered at the academy’s closing concert, which is part of the Rainy Days festival. Participants will also have the chance to attend all the festival’s concerts.
