German-Ukrainian cultural encounters

The ensemble recherche, a nine-person soloist ensemble, has had a significant impact on the development of contemporary ensemble music for more than 20 years. The ensemble recherche is now developing a project in Ukraine in order to pass on its experience to a new generation of young musicians in a place with practically no infrastructure to help cultivate contemporary music. In several master courses held in Lviv, five young Ukrainian musicians will be selected to perform in concerts in Germany.
