The 13th edition of the International Workshop for Young Composers, organised by IDEA International Divertimento Ensemble Academy, will be held at the Tbilisi State Conservatory.
14 composers for ensemble and 7 composers for solo instrument will have the opportunity to write a new piece that will be rehearsed by the Divertimento Ensemble during a 7-9 days workshop, and then performed in a public concert. The composers will also receive individual lessons from three tutors (Maka Virsaladze, Gabriele Manca, and Javier Torres Maldonado) and interact with the musicians during rehearsals and meetings. The best scores, selected during the workshop, will be performed by the Divertimento Ensemble during the Rondò 2027 season in Milan.
33% of the available spots (7/21) will be reserved for applications from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey, who will be eligible for scholarships.
