Huddersfield contemporary music festival (UK)

Running from 18 to 27 November, the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival showcases the works of several Swiss composers, including Michael Wertmüller, Beat Furrer and Daniel Zea.

Pride of place, however, goes to cellist and composer Alfred Zimmerlin, whose composition and improvisation talents can be admired in combination with the Arditti Quartet, Trio Kimmig Studer Zimmerlin and the Stone Orchestra.

In collaboration with Pro Helvetia, the Huddersfield Festival is giving contemporary Swiss music a special slot in its programme for a period of three years.
