Above all, inner listening experiences and sound concepts should be communicable; these should be tried out in extempore playing or recorded in traditional or graphic notation. Under the direction of Peter Michael Hamel the workshop will create the space for experimental improvisation to stimulate the productive process of intercultural composing. Examples and works of intercultural composing will be presented. Work brought by participants will additionally be discussed. The interplay of composition and presentation will be promoted by a regularly occurring "jour fixe". The sphere of applied music - with examples from film music, especially composition for silent films ? will open up new perspectives for participants and encourage them in personal development. Finally, participants will attend rehearsals for the world premiere of Hamel?s orchestral score ?Fünf Tore?, where the focus will be on practical orchestration. Director Peter Michael Hamel composer of concert and chamber music and opera, well-known within the experimental avant-garde, "self-performing artist" and director of the international improvisational group Between; Peter Michael Hamel is regarded as a forerunner of the world music and minimal music movement in Europe; lecturing activity: 1993-96 Graz University of Music, since 1997 successor to Ligeti as Professor of composition and theory at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg Assistant: Martin von Frantzius graduate in violin studies, composer of film music; since 2002 he has studied composition - with his main emphasis on multimedia composition - with Peter Michael Hamel at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg Composition workshop 22 to 31 August 2004 Students from the composition workshop have the opportunity to take part passively in the composers? forum (director: Jörg Arnecke, freelance composer).

Composers’ forum Piano Workshop Masterclass 14 - 21 August 2004 The week-long piano masterclass is intended to provide impulses for further musical development and to enrich existing knowledge with innovative ideas. Fidelity to detail or an eye for overall form, stylistic rightness or spontaneous individual expression, philosophical idea or simply better finger positions and relaxed body posture ? every element can come to the fore and contribute to overall musicianship. The course is intended to encourage individualised piano-playing among young pianists in order to help them with their personal artistic development. Director: Paul Gulda independent pianist, until 2003 visiting professor at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst in Vienna Piano Workshop Literature 14 to 22 August 2004 Can one learn to write a book? Every conversation begins with a question. The right questions at the right time evolve into stories and narratives. Writing represents an emphatic form of intensifying the experience of life. Writing allows people to fix important moments, which can be preserved, deepened and passed on to others. These and other questions will be discussed and illustrated by Wolf Peter Schnetz in ?The Parsifal Game: the art of the question that leads to story-telling and hence to literature? - the intensive course of this year?s literature workshop, attended by practised and first-time participants. Publication possibilities via new production ways like ?books on demand? will also be discussed. Please note! Participants have to speak and write fluent German. The number of participants is limited to 12.

The course is aimed at young professionals who already have some experience in music criticism and music journalism. It is divided into two working phases. In Bayreuth, the emphasis will be on print media; participants will practise professional music theatre criticism after attending a Wagner music drama at the Bayreuth Festival. In Bonn, participants will be introduced to radio work and CD production in the studios of Deutsche Welle.
