Organization

HearAndNow Foundation

The HearAndNow Foundation forms the organizational basis of the HearAndNow Chamber Music Festival and the HearAndNow Collective. The foundation aims to make contemporary classical music accessible to a wider audience by connecting it with music from the tradition and presenting it in carefully curated concert programs.

The foundation collaborates with young, international top musicians and also offers opportunities to young talent from the new generation. Through collaborations with composers, public masterclasses, and intensive coaching, young musicians are given the opportunity to develop artistically and gain experience within a professional festival context.

The HearAndNow Foundation supports the development and implementation of innovative programs and contributes to the visibility and anchoring of contemporary music in concert life.
