Contemporary Music

sun 7 sep 2014 17:00 hrs

Today we will start a whole new series about the current generation of Dutch composers. Who influences who? What are important sources for musical inspiration? And what are their motives? In this second episode you will works by the Polish composer Katarzyna Szwed who lives in the Netherlands since 2007.

We will broadcast recent works of them every month, but also ask them for one key piece that is dear to them or that played an important role in their development. To conclude we will ask them to play a work from a colleague for the programme of this series. In this way a canon new Dutch music will automatically develop. 
In this second episode you will hear works by the Polish composer Katarzyna Szwed who lives in the Netherlands since 2007. She completed her Master in composition at the Rotterdam Conservatoire at Peter-Jan Wagemans, Klaas de Vries and René Uijlenhoet. At the moment she is working on her doctoral research at the University of Birmingham. Her work is characterized by a search for beauty and tranquility, in which she wants to invite the listener to surrender to the amazement that occurs when one can surrender to the moment.
