Amalie Stalheim with young string players

Classical link

Festival Academy of Bergen

New music by young composers is performed by young artists in a concert where two mentorship programmes at the Festival Academy of Bergen (FAB) come together to inspire one another.

Three composers will create new works, and the performing musicians will, in addition to premiering these pieces, work on and perform music from the past hundred years. This concert builds bridges between different musical eras, all the way to the brand new compositions.
