ECLAT Festival for new music with former Solitude fellows and jurors

This year, several former Akademie Schloss Solitude fellows and jurors will once again be taking part in the renowned ECLAT Festival for new music. These include concerts and works by Jennifer Walshe, Peter Veale, Carl Rosman and Michael Reudenbach.

As a festival of the independent scene, ECLAT Festival neue Musik (New Music) Stuttgart maintains its important place alongside the major broadcast-based European festivals of new music. For over 40 years, the festival has stood for a great openness to all currents of new music, for a willingness to take risks and a desire for the unexpected. With a focus on artists who virtuously exploit the possibilities of digital media in playing with genres, in dissolving space, perspectives and functions, ECLAT presents its curious and attentive audience with idiosyncratic interdisciplinary formats between music theater, performance, installation and concert staging. The focus is always on projects that question the familiar, reflect current artistic discourses and are located in a social context. ECLAT is primarily characterized by its own productions and international co-productions, but also by cooperations with cultural actors in the region.

The ECLAT Festival is organized by Musik der Jahrhunderte e.V. and supported by the City of Stuttgart and the Ministry of Science, Research and Arts Baden-Württemberg.
