Elbphilharmonie Visions

The festival with contemporary music

Focusing on the here and now: after a brilliant start in 2023, the »Elbphilharmonie Visions« festival returns in a second edition. Stylistically diverse works from the 21st century are on the programme – created by contemporary composers who respond to the present and its issues with their individual voice.

Visions x RIAA: Visions x RIAA: For the first time at the festival, you can immerse yourself in club culture after the concert with good drinks and experience hip DJs in a new location. A pop-up bar has been set up on the 5th floor of the Elbphilharmonie, where the Hamburg bar RIAA will provide a finely curated programme with international DJs.

The extremely entertaining opening concert presents the new work »World Builder, Creature« by the young British crossover composer Alex Paxton, who fuses video game soundtracks, virtuoso chamber music and jazz improvisation into an unmistakable style for which he received the Claussen Simon Composition Prize. »Paxton’s fascinating score made a strong impression on me from the very first moment,« enthuses Alan Gilbert, festival initiator and chief conductor of the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra, who is truly passionate about modern compositions.

Some of the best radio orchestras from Germany and Austria, which have always rendered outstanding services to contemporary music, once again ensure top musical quality during the festival.
