Young Composers Meeting

About the Young Composers Meeting

Young Composers Meeting is an intiative by Orkest De Ereprijs to give young professional composers under 30 a chance to compose for an ensemble and develop their talents, knowledge and professional network.

During this week, fourteen selected participants up until 30 years old, rehearse the 3 minute pieces they have submitted earlier. They are accompanied by experienced composers and attend lectures and individual lessons. The intensive week will be concluded with a concert. The most promising participants, in the opinion of an independent jury of leading composers, will be awarded a paid composition commission as an incentive. All compositions are performed by Orkest De Ereprijs, led by Gregory Charette, during the Final Concert on Friday March 1, 2024 in the Gigant theater, Apeldoorn.

The next YCM will be in the week of February 25 until March 1, 2024. We proudly present the participants of 2024:

Franki Dodwell (Ireland), Rebecca Galian Castello (UK), Fabian Blum (Duitsland) Mathilde Koeppel (Germany), James Layton (UK), Julius vond Lorentz (Germany), Shiwei Lui (China), William Shiu (Hong Kong), Max Syedtollan (Scotland), Agnes Vranceanu (Romania), Gavin Wiyanto (Indonesia), Kristain Rasmussen (UK), Aleksandrs Avramecs (Latvia), Isak Björn Hedlund (Sweden, laureate 2023).
