The ZKM always does whatever it can to foster young artists and offer them a platform for their works. This series of concerts by the Karlsruhe College of Music is therefore being held for the second time this year in the Blue Cube.

The setting for Friday's performance is the concert exam for the composer, Stefan Pohlit. The content and aesthetic style of his six-part cycle entitled Die Namen der Wüste [Names of the Desert] is based on the essay of the same name by the Austrian writer, Raoul Schrott. The young composer's arrangement gives the piece a new and very individual overall structure.

Wednesday and Saturday evening see presentations by composers from the College of Music’s Computer Studio. Their mixture of computer music, live electronic music and video art not only offers the audience a very varied range of music, but also provides a host of fascinating impressions thanks to the juxtaposition of works by well-known artists and new compositions by students at the music college.
