Great works cast a shadow ahead – which in this case, due to the pandemic, has become quite long: The Musikfest Berlin 2021 finally sees a number of long-awaited world premieres featuring Heiner Goebbels, Olga Neuwirth, Enno Poppe and Lisa Streich.

Heiner Goebbels has been awarded the GEMA’s Music Authors’ Prize. The Music Pen Club Japan awarded the prize for the “contemporary music” category to Dai Fujikura.
