Video / Composers in Focus

What does it mean to compose in this day and age? How does technological progress influence the creative process and the creation of music? And what is the relationship between composers and their audience? The DSO explores these and many other questions in its new video format 'Composers in Focus' by talking to several contemporary composers. The first episodes will be released every Tuesday starting 27 July.

The direct energy and finely shaped moments of musical expression correlate with the artful composition of timbres. Born in Prague in 1979, he studied composition at the Academy of Music in Prague and at the Paris Conservatory. He composes for orchestra, chamber and vocal ensembles as well as electroacoustic music. Several of Ondřej Adámeks compositions have been played by the DSO in its concerts. His machine music 'Dusty Rusty Hush' is at the centre of the third part of the concert film 'In Exile – of Gods and Men'.
