    Media Release Wolfgang Rihm Is the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY’s New Artistic Director Matthias Pintscher Named Principal Conductor Lucerne, 04 September 2015 . Starting in the summer of 2016, the German composer Wolfgang Rihm will assume overall artistic directorship of the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY. The conductor and composer Matthias Pintscher will support him as Principal Conductor and will be responsible each summer for a central Academy program; he will additionally focus on developing the Academy Orchestra. Both contracts are for a period of five years. The founder of the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY, Pierre Boulez, will continue to remain in close dialogue with Wolfgang Rihm, Matthias Pintscher, and the Festival team as Honorary President of the Academy. For twelve years the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY has been regarded as a unique international educational campus in the field of contemporary classical music of the 20th and 21st centuries. It offers continuing training not only for some 120 instrumentalists between 18 and 32 years of age but also for young directors and composers. “I am extremely delighted that in the person of Wolfgang Rihm a leading figure of contemporary music will be taking over artistic leadership of the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY,” remarks Michael Haefliger, LUCERNE FESTIVAL’s Executive and Artistic Director. “On the strength of his experience and his knowledge in connection with the Academy, Wolfgang Rihm will be in a position to establish new directions for linking creativity with effective ways of working together for young instrumentalists, conductors, and composers. This summer Matthias Pintscher has returned for a third time as a teacher and conductor to help shape the Academy’s work in marvelous ways, as seen for example in the recent “Day for Pierre Boulez”.

Literature available on Honegger’s Cello Concerto suggests this concerto is often considered as a composition that resonates with Les Six traditions. While reflecting currents of Les Six, the Cello Concerto also features departures from Erik Satie’s and Jean Cocteau’s ideal for French composers to return to simplicity. Both characteristics of and departures from Les Six examined in this concerto include metric organization, thematic and rhythmic development, melodic wedge shapes, contrapuntal techniques, simplicity in orchestration, diatonicism, the use of humor, jazz influences, and other unique performance techniques.

Con el presente trabajo se pretende realizar una inmersión a las manifestaciones artísticas que se dan en el entorno No Wave de Nueva York entre los años 70 y 80. El objetivo principal es estudiar las relaciones que existen entre las figuras más relevantes tanto en artes plásticas como en música y cine. El título “Lenguajes artísticos y vanguardias” responde a una intención de establecer las colaboraciones y cruces entre las artes, ya que al tratarse de un movimiento heterogéneo, se puede y se busca estudiar diferentes artistas y objetos artísticos. Este aspecto, a nivel personal, es otro de los que nos convencieron para abordar este tema, ya que nos permite indagar en varias manifestaciones en lugar de centrarnos en una única expresión, así como en los artistas clave del momento y como encajan todos los elementos en un lugar y momento determinados.
