Enjoy the festival!

The borders of contemporary music are happily erod- Thorbjørn Tønder Hansen Artistic Director ing, and the scene is in constant flux. As composers, Ultima Oslo Contemporary Music Festival musicians and other artists move seamlessly between genres and art forms in their work, a vital melting pot emerges. The enlightened spirit behind this exploratory and openended artistic creativity forms a vision for humanity, and will unfold throughout the festival.

Our parallel Ultima Context programme will explore the migratory theme through seminars, workshops, artist talks and panel discussions, and provide a space for reflection and dialogue on key issues related to the con- temporary arts and music scene:

How do we increase diversity in a contemporary music context? How can we harness the visionary legacy and uncompromising artistic energy of the past century’s avant garde to create a pluralistic and inclusive con- temporary music scene for the future? What can Ultima contribute now, and how should the festival develop over the coming years in order to achieve this?
