Program 2025

In the summer of 2025, you will have the opportunity to work with such conductors as Vimbayi Kaziboni, Jonathan Nott, David Robertson, and Elena Schwarz, as well as soloists including Pierre-Laurent Aimard and the two “artistes étoiles” of Lucerne’s Summer Festival: the violist Tabea Zimmermann and the performer and composer Winnie Huang. One focus will be on works with electronics by composer-in-residence Marco Stroppa. We will celebrate the 100th birthday of the Academy’s founder, Pierre Boulez, by studying and performing pathbreaking works: in addition to Répons, Figures – Doubles – Prismes, and Notations for orchestra, the program includes the revival of Poésie pour pouvoir, a work that Boulez withdrew from his catalogue. In addition, you will prepare brand-new pieces by Dieter Ammann, Chaya Czernowin, Dai Fujikura, and Olga Neuwirth, among others, many of which will receive their world premieres.
