The National Youth Orchestra of Germany – Play. Promote. Inspire. The National Youth Orchestra of Germany is Germany’s youngest major orchestra, founded by the German Music Council in 1969 and made up of the country’s finest young musicians between the ages of 14 and 19. Distinguished conductors such as Andris Nelsons, Ingo Metzmacher, and Kirill Petrenko have led the orchestra; soloists have included Christian Tetzlaff, Tabea Zimmermann, and Fazil Say, as well as the rock musicians Sting and Peter Maffay. Since 2018, Sir Simon Rattle is Conductor Laureate of the National Youth Orchestra: “What an enormous pleasure to meet this wonderful next generation of colleagues! I think the future of orchestras is safe in your hands.” The young musicians qualify by auditioning for a jury of professionals. During intensive work phases, they prepare significant orchestral works from all periods; contemporary music and premieres of new compositions are an integral part of the repertoire. Tours have taken the group throughout Europe, as well as to Asia, Africa, and North and South America. The orchestra has participated in numerous projects of historical significance, including a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Berlin Airlift with Kurt Masur in New York. It accompanied the founding of the Youth Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine, took the "Embrace Our Rivers" project as an opportunity to draw attention to the climate conditions in India and supported musical education in the South African township of Soweto. The highlight of the pandemic year 2020 has been a video production of Ludwig van Beethoven's 7th Symphony under the baton of Beethoven specialist Paavo Järvi. The orchestra’s work is generously supported by the German Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, DekaBank, Evonik Foundation, Daimler AG, the City of Bonn, GVL (German Collecting Society for Performing Rights), DOV (Union of German Orchestra Musicians), the German National Youth Orchestra Foundation and numerous private donors.

Träum Weiter Vom Orchester Der Zukunft
1 7. DEUTSCHER ORCHESTERTAG 3. UND 4. NOVEMBER 2019 Umweltforum Berlin Auferstehungskirche TRÄUM WEITER VOM ORCHESTER DER ZUKUNFT. Gefördert von: VORWORT WILLKOMMEN BEIM DOT 2019 Wir begrüßen Sie herzlich zum 17. Deutschen Orchestertag 2019! Im vergangenen Jahr haben wir den zweiten Tag unserer Konferenz zum ersten Mal für Orchestermusiker*innen geöffnet, damit der Orchestertag zu einem Forum für Aus tausch, Dialog und dem besseren gegenseitigen Verstehen für Management und Musiker wird. Das konstruktive und positive Feedback bestätigt uns darin, diesen Prozess in diesem Jahr fortzuführen. Neben praktischen Aspekten der Digitalisierung wie etwa Apps und Technik, die das Konzerterlebnis bereichern, und den Chancen von digitalem Noten material für den gesamten Theater oder Orchesterbetrieb legen wir einen deutlichen Schwerpunkt auf die Fragestellung: Was ist das Orchester der Zukunft? Was ist die Zukunft der Orchester? Gemeinsam mit dem Dirigenten Iván Fischer, Mitgliedern der Jungen Deutschen Philharmonie und anderen Impulsgebern möchten wir überlegen, wie ein Orchester aussehen könnte, das (noch) nicht den Zwängen des Arbeitsalltags und unseren verfestigten Vorstellungen von Orchesterleben unterworfen ist. Am Sonntag werden wir uns wie üblich der Fortbildung widmen. Mit unserem bewährten Premiumpartner der Mannheimer Versicherung haben wir für die gleich namige Akademie erneut ein Programm zusammengestellt, das wertvolle Impulse für den OrchestermanagementAlltag zu den Themen New Work und Agiles Management gibt.

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations.

MusXchange 2012–14 A Cooperation Project of the European Federation of National Youth Orchestras EFNYO’s programme for fostering transnational mobility of pre-professional musicians pre-professional opening horizons Youth mobility matters Orchestras innovative training concerts new skills needs europe changing new mindsets With its 35 member organisations, the European Federation of National Youth Orchestras (EFNYO) is an association deeply rooted in European musical life. It provides a platform for the exchange of expertise in music training and performance between the leading national youth orchestras of Europe and takes over responsibility for skilling future generations of musicians. In this regard, the Federation truly benefits from its unique po- sition at the interface of higher music education and the music profession. Following its beginnings in 1996, the musicians’ exchange programme of EFNYO has developed into an indispensable instrument for the profes- sionalization of the music sector in the European Union. It gives young pre-professional musicians opportunities to gain orchestral practice in partner orchestras abroad, discover new repertoire, different performance styles and orchestra traditions, meet conductors, teachers, and young artists in a different cultural environment. This experience will widen their perception of musicians’ job profiles today, help them to compete on the European labour market, and increase their social, intercultural and language skills. The programme “MusXchange” has certainly been the highlight among EFNYO cooperation projects since its foundation in 1994.

Bundesjugendorchester Sagt Sommerarbeitsphase Und Tournee 2020 Ab
Bonn, 26. Mai 2020 Bundesjugendorchester sagt Sommerarbeitsphase und Tournee 2020 ab Das Bundesjugendorchester und sein Träger, die gemeinnützige Projektgesellschaft des Deutschen Musikrats, haben sich aufgrund der aktuellen Situation dazu entschlossen, die Sommerarbeitsphase 2020 des Bundesjugendorchesters abzusagen. Alle Beteiligten bedauern diesen notwenigen Schritt sehr, sehen sich jedoch in der Verantwortung, die Gesundheit aller mitwirkenden MusikerInnen, des Tourneeteams sowie des Publikums zu schützen. Die Sommerarbeitsphase des Bundesjugendorchesters muss aufgrund der aktuellen Auswirkungen des Coronavirus abgesagt werden. Durch die neuen Rahmenbedingungen und Vorgaben von Bundesregierung und Ländern ist es dem Orchester und seinem Team leider nicht möglich, seine Probenphase mit anschließender Tournee wie geplant durchzuführen. Viele Konzerte der Sommertournee fallen dabei auch unter das Verbot für Veranstaltungen über 1.000 Menschen bis einschließlich 31. August 2020. Hinzu kommen die unterschiedlichen Anordnungen an den Reiseorten in Italien, Österreich, den Niederlanden und Russland sowie eine enorm erschwerte Anreise für alle Orchester- und Teammitglieder, die Dirigenten und Solisten sowie den Weltjugendchor. Das Bundesjugendorchester und die gemeinnützige Projektgesellschaft des Deutschen Musikrats bedauern diese Entscheidung sehr, die gemeinsam mit den beteiligten Konzertveranstaltern und Festivals getroffen wurde. Hierzu Sönke Lentz, Orchesterdirektor des Bundesjugendorchesters: „Die Gesundheit unserer Musikerinnen und

The National Youth Orchestra of Germany – Play, Promote, Inspire! The National Youth Orchestra of Germany is Germany’s youngest major orchestra, founded by the German Music Council in 1969 and made up of the country’s finest young musicians between the ages of 14 and 19. Since 2018, Sir Simon Rattle is Conductor Laureate of the National Youth Orchestra. In addition to Sir Simon, distinguished conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, Kurt Masur, Gustavo Dudamel, and Kirill Petrenko have led the orchestra; soloists have included Christian Tetzlaff, Tabea Zimmermann, and Fazil Say, as well as the rock musicians Sting and Peter Maffay. In 2016, the orchestra – together with the conductor Alexander Shelley and Campino from the group “Die Toten Hosen” – was awarded an ECHO Klassik prize in the category “Classic for Children”. In 2013, the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra assumed an official mentoring role for the youth orchestra, which is invited each year to the Easter Festival in Baden-Baden to join members of the Berlin Philharmonic for master classes, chamber music, and concerts performed together under the direction of Sir Simon Rattle. The young musicians qualify by auditioning for a jury of professionals. During intensive work phases, they prepare significant orchestral works from all periods; contemporary music and premieres of new compositions are an integral part of the repertoire. The engagement with great musical literature, the work with professional musicians from Germany’s finest orchestras and universities, as well as encounters with other like-minded young artists contribute to an unforgettable experience for the members of the orchestra. The National Youth Orchestra of Germany has performed around the world, often as a cultural ambassador for the Federal Republic of Germany.
