2027 ICG - Stuttgart International Conference - Proposal Call

International Conductors Guild - In recognition of the 200th anniversary of Beethoven's death, the International Conductors Guild (ICG) invites scholars, researchers, and presenters to submit Conference presentation proposals focused on the great composer, his works, and his life. We also encourage proposals on composers and works influenced by Beethoven. This may include, but is not limited to:

Great masterworks of the time period, or works from any time period that were influenced by Beethoven’s legacy

Conductors of any genre known for their interpretation or advocacy of these works

Proposals will not be accepted solely on the basis of a focus on Beethoven and his legacy; we also encourage other ideas centered on topics important to conductors.

Presentations should be on topics that engender deep discussion and discovery for professional conductors of all stripes (Orchestra, Band, Chorus, Ballet, Opera, Musical Theatre). Some fruitful directions from past Conferences
