KLANG! with Saariaho
The city of Hamburg has chosen Kaija Saariaho to be the first composer in residence of its newly created KLANG! Project, which is dedicated to creating a network within the existing contemporary music activities of Hamburg. The season opens on September 28 with a day on Kampnagel with professional and amateur groups creating projects, followed by various performances of Saariaho’s work over the season, culminating in a festival in July 2008 dedicated to her work.
