Nina Šenk, a representative of Slovenia's vibrant cultural scene and at the same time familiar with all the formative positions in new music, displays a high degree of virtuosity in how she deals with form and musical architecture. Her ability to think sound in space and to use it in an truly colourful way to achieve the greatest possible depth is particularly impressive.
November Night, based on a poem by Adelaide Crapsey (1878–1914), will be premiered by Klangforum Wien at the award ceremony concert. For the first time, Klangforum will also perform music by Manos Tsangaris on this occasion – his Pizzicato Mysterium explores the mystery of precise musical interplay with unusual actions and instruments. Justė Janulytė, born in Vilnius in 1982, superimposes two processes in her work titled after the Italian word for hourglass – one part fills up, another empties. Vladimir Tarnopolski, born in 1955 in Dnipro (Ukraine), combines two types of time progression in Foucault's Pendulum; one organic and one mechanical.
