03.10.2019 – 06.10.2019; Graz.
The Festival Platform for Contemporary and Experimental Music, with this years Motto “Next door – The Neighbourhood of Europe”.

How far is it to Lebanon, Georgia and Armenia, Cyprus and Israel, Tunisia and Morocco? The Music Protocol 2019 unfolds its programme around geographical proximity and distance: how far are these countries from Europe, or – more precisely – how far are we from these countries, their history, mentality and above all their music?
The programme put together by Elke Tschaikner focuses on individual, selected positions from precisely these countries, across all genres represented: premiere commissions for the Radio Symphony Orchestra Vienna went to a woman composer from Belarus, a composer from Israel and a composer with Moroccan-British parents. Studio Dan plays a dramaturgically rigorous sequence of ten world premieres, including composers from Austria, Lebanon, Belarus and Armenia. And the main focus of the programme is on three works by the legendary Georgian composer Mikheil Shugliashvili, who died in 1996.

musikprotokoll is a production of ORF Radio Austria 1 and ORF Styria in cooperation with the Festival steirischer herbst.
