To be in direct contact with young composers, to encourage them to take an interest in vocal music and to offer them to know high-level performers seems fascinating to us and that is why the Métaboles is interested in this University of composition project.
ARCO is an academy of binational composition which associates the Gmem - Marseille (national center of musical creation) and the Universität Mozarteum of Salzburg and which includes Les Métaboles, L'Ensemble Multilaterale and the Tana Quartet.
The 2024 edition will take place at the Mozarteum Salzburg from July 3 to 13, 2024. It will welcome twelve composers from around the world as well as two young string quartets, 6 singers and an assistant conductor. The young artists will be accompanied by Francesco Filidei, Henry Fourès, Antoine Maisonhaute, Sarah Nemtsov, Eva Reiter, Yann Robin, Christian Sebille, Johaness Maria Staud, Donatienne Michel-Dansac, Elisabeth Gutjahr
