Violin & (Electric) Guitar

Workshop Yaron Deutsch, Guest: Irvine Arditti

Special project for composers, (e-)guitar & violin players

Tutor: Yaron Deutsch
Guest performer: Irvine Arditti

When: tba

Who: composers (selected from Call for Scores, registered for the composition studios), participants of the guitar and violin studios

Submission deadline: ⏰ 24 March 2023

For his 2023 guitar course in Darmstadt, tutor Yaron Deutsch is aiming to pair guitarists with violin players in the most intimate setting of playing duets together. Alongside this close but rare encounter of instruments and instrumentalists, the project holds the humble goal of creating a generational meeting point in which young players will spend a day together with violin legend Irvine Arditti as they play through the compositions written for the project. To fulfil this goal we invite interested composers attending the Darmstadt Summer Course to submit an application for writing a piece for guitar/electric guitar & violin. The works will be worked through during the course period and will be performed at the guitar class concert finale.

Call for Composers

For applying to this project please send 1-2 existing works no later than 24 March 2023 to guitar@darmstaedter-ferienkurse.de. (Please send large files e. g. via wetransfer.com)

Yaron Deutsch will select 2 composers in the beginning of April 2023, allowing the chosen composers a period of three months to compose. Submission of the piece should be no later than 1st July 2023. All composers taking part in the project must be registered participants of the Darmstadt Summer Course 2023.
