This year, our main guest is John Zorn, one of leading figures of the jazz, contemporary and experimental scene. We have also invited François Bayle, a prominent creator of electro-acoustic music.
We've entered the twenty first century well-aware that the sense of identity is gradually blurring. Who are the artists of today? What do we now see as a musical instrument? The boundaries between genres are increasingly disappearing, while the composers keep creating their own, new forms. The programme of the Musica Electronica Nova 2017 makes an attempt to reflect these phenomena.
