International Composition Competition & Symphonic Lab GENERACE 2027

Young composers are invited to submit a piece for chamber orchestra until December 31, 2026. The jury chaired by Ondřej Adámek, will select up to 5 finalists, who will come to Ostrava on June 1–5, 2027.

The selected compositions will be rehearsed and performed by the orchestra of the Janáček Philharmonic Ostrava and consequently three prizes will be awarded. All finalists will then join the Symphonic Lab, where they will work on new orchestral pieces at a seminar led by Ondřej Adámek, Vito Žuraj and Sam Wigglesworth. One of the finalists will receive a commission for a new orchestral composition.
