ECCO is proud to present its European Programme!

As announced previously, the European Contemporary Composers Orchestra (ECCO) will have the pleasure to close the Creators Conference on Tuesday 24^th February 2015. This is the first edition since the reboot of the ECCO project which aims to establish itself as a pan-European “body of sound” dedicated to performance, circulation and promotion of contemporary art music.
This year, the Sturm und Klang Ensemble was selected to serve as core or “body” of ECCO. As for the “sound”, the ECCO artistic committee just came to an agreement on the scores to be presented during the evening! The committee, composed of ECSA composers and guest Thomas Van Haeperen, conductor of the Sturm und Klang ensemble, reviewed all entries submitted by the ECSA network for the concert.  All members agreed that scores entered were of great quality, reflecting the dynamism and strength of professional composers of contemporary music active in Europe today, and reaching a final decision has been a challenging process.
After careful consideration, they are proud to present the scores which will be performed during the closing concert of the Creators Conference 2015 – in alphabetical order:

“Ainsi une courbe” – Jean Luc Fafchamps – Belgium

• “Diptych” – Mihailo Trandafilovski – Macedonia

• “Luca Marenzio in Salzburg” – Mate Balogh – Hungary

• “Pinta” – Pertti Jalava – Finland

• “ The Stargazer” – Lynne Plowman – UK
