Musikhochschule Münster - UFMG
03 a 07 de outubro de 2022
3a edição
In 2019, the music schools of UFMG and the University of Münster initiated their collaboration with the event HORIZONS: A week of classes, concerts and lectures in Belo Horizonte, MG. The project is dedicated to works of European classical music as well as contemporary music, addressing elements of crossover music, creative engagement with scholarly works of new music and the interpretation of all types of improvised music.
The purpose of this collaboration is to provide a platform for the exchange of information, musical styles and experiences, in addition to strengthening the ties between the two institutions to promote exchange. We hope to build a foundation for long-term collaborations, with the support of both universities and the German funding institution, DAAD.
As a result of the COVID pandemic, the second edition was held virtually in 2021. This year we return to in-person activities, and the UFMG Music School will receive 6 professors from the Musikhochschüle Münster between October 3rd and 7th for a week of masterclasses, lectures, classes and concerts.
