+++ Toshio Hosokawa's 'Woven Dreams' has been honoured at the British Composer Awards: The orchestral work, which received its world premiere in 2010, was awarded a prize in the 'international' category on 3 December. It will be performed by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales on 20 December under Jun Märkl.

+++ Antje Weithaas with the Camerata Bern in Genf: On 10 December, the violinist will lead and perform with the Camerata Bern and pianist Alexander Lonquich in Victoria Hall, Genf. The programme will consist of works by Mendelssohn.

+++ Press reviews temporarily not available on our website: Several newspaper publishers are currently filing law suits against the use of quotations from their media, including press reviews. Until this matter is legally clarified, we feel impelled to take down all reviews of our artists and projects from our website. We hope that this issue will soon be resolved, and that we can again include music critiques on our site as usual.
