Ricordi Berlin is very happy to announce the continuation of the collaboration with German composer Sarah Nemtsov, laureate of ricordilab 2016-2019. Her unique artistic voice, sonic complexity and constant success make her an exceptional composer of her generation. We spoke to her about her upcoming projects with Staatstheater Cottbus, ensemble mosaik, Klangforum Wien and ensemble adapter.




Curious about her music? Listen to a snippet of her new CD with the Finnish Baroque Orchestra featuring her harpsichord concerto beyond its simple space.
