In addition to rehearsals, Ensemble Modern members will give workshop on subjects such as instrumental expertise, percussion, electronics, notation, Ensemble sound.
The master course closes with a concert at the home of the German Ensemble Academy in Frankfurt, where the works will be performed. The final concert will be video-streamed and available online.
