Description:
The festival carries on the tradition launched by George Enescu, well-known for his engagement in the artistic creation of his time, promotion of new talents and new, innovative ideas. Like in all precedent editions, both Romanian composers and foreign talents will be present, as well as ensembles and interprets committed to the musical phenomenon in contemporaneity. The ensemble IconArts proposes interactive New Generation concerts that will take place in the Opera and Multimedia Studio of the National University of Music in Bucharest. The ensembles Hyperion International, Profil and Archaeus, pianist Matei Varga, flutist Ion Bogdan Ștefănescu, Altenberg Trio Wien, The Voces quartet, The Schubert Ensemble, Harmonious Chamber Orchestra from Osaka and The European Contemporary Orchestra are other important names that will help shape the sonorous portrait of the music of XXth and XXIst centuries, in a cultural endeavor wired to the international circuit of musical and artistic values.
