Final for the international competition for orchestra
In 2021, IRCAM and the Orchestre national d'Île-de-France created the Élan Prize, a unique international composition competition bringing together orchestra and electronics. The finalists of the 2025 edition—Alessandro Baticci, Shin Kim, and Hristina Susak—have attended a composition workshop and tonight, their works will be performed. This concert also features the electronic work by Arnau Brichs, the 2024 winner. At the end of the evening, the Élan 2025 Prize, donated by the Orchestre national d'Île-de-France and the Maison de la Musique Contemporaine, will be awarded, along with a commission from IRCAM and the Orchestra for a new work incorporating electronics.
