Music that I composed in this moment of my life. I want to explore sound itself & how it's produced. I love Rhythm! I love to play w/ perception. I want to develop a personal style & create new fantasies. Multidimensional bridges of cosmic vibration.

Macarena Rosmanich, a Chilean composer based in Germany, is one of the most active international voices of a growing scene of Latin American female composers. Although her career has developed mainly in Europe, her eagerness to motivate future female composers in her country of origin, makes her have permanent contact with the contemporary Chilean scene. 
The concept of intertextuality is at the center of her work. Each piece is linked to other pieces, through elements that are then developed in a new context, generating a universe that interacts and evolves internally. This universe is not isolated, but also discusses or is inspired by narrative literature, poetry, art, as well as social and political events.  All this works as an engine that triggers a flow of sound relationships that give rise to her work. 
"The close relationship between compositional work and literature, has led me to conceive spaces that complement each other and merge into a unity through music. My approach seeks to provide the poetic form with a new temporal dimension, a sort of collaboration between sound and word that transcends conventional boundaries. In essence, my purpose is to blur the boundaries of pre-existing form and structure in a work, rearranging them in such a way as to configure a new work, thus redefining the essence of the original. This process not only involves a stylistic transformation, but also seeks to open up new routes of interpretation, allowing the musical composition to dialogue in a unique way with the poetry and, in turn, establish a richer and more dynamic connection with time."
Her work ranges from chamber and vocal music to works for orchestra and musical theatre. She has worked with numerous international soloists, orchestras and ensembles, such as Musikfabrik, Kommas, Via Nova, Mosaik, Recherche, Multilatérale, United Instruments of Lucilin, KNM Berlin, Vertixe Sonora, L'ART POUR L'ART, Reflexion K, Broken Frames Syndicate, among others. 
Her works have been performed in Latin America, Germany, France, Italy, England, Spain and Luxembourg. 
She studied at the University of Chile where she graduated with distinction and continued her postgraduate studies with composer José María Sánchez Verdú at the Robert Schumann Musikhochschule in Düsseldorf and later a master's degree in composition at the University of Freiburg with Johannes Schöllhorn.
Macarena Rosmanich lives and works in Cologne, Germany.

Dmitry Burtsev (b. 1992) is a composer, sound artist, and improviser.
His artistic research unfolds between two complementary poles. The first is personal, exploring memory and forgetting, subjective topographies of place, and the oscillation between speech and silence. The second pole is collective, focused on culture and language, critically rethinking traditions and their clichés. At the intersection of these areas, Burtsev develops a distinctive approach to music. Composing becomes both a form of self-expression and an encounter with the material as the "other."

Dmitry’s music consistently highlights the social aspect of sound. For him, composition is not only the creation of autonomous works, but also a question: How can sound express the pressing issues of society? This approach has resulted in projects in the fields of chamber music, sound art, performative works, and theatre.

Dmitry graduated from the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory in 2017, where he studied composition under Vladimir Tarnopolsky. Since then, he has worked as an assistant to composer Sergej Newski, gaining valuable professional experience. At the same time, he was active as an accordionist in Moscow’s free improvisation scene, performing at experimental festivals such as RichterFest and Noise and Fury.

The environments in which Burtsev lived have played a central role in his music. For over a decade, he resided on the grounds of a former forestry estate outside Moscow, moving between the urban soundscape and the forest. This duality sharpened his reflection on how environments shape perception, leading to several works with field recordings. Among them are the performative composition “Symphony for Urbanites” (Moscow Urban Forum, 2019) and the performance “Personal Experience” (Sidur Museum, 2019). In the latter, Burtsev improvised with his own archival recordings in a Max/MSP patch.

From 2018, he collaborated with politically engaged theatre, composing for works addressing collective trauma, such as “Schitalka” (on the Georgian-Abkhaz War of 1991, longlisted for the Golden Mask Award) and “Govorit Moskva” (on Stalinist terror, premiered in 2022).

Following the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, Burtsev emigrated to Azerbaijan, where he became active in the Baku Contemporary Music Society and engaged with local traditions. In 2024, he began the master’s program at the Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf under José María Sánchez-Verdú.

His music has been performed by ensembles such as Studio for New Music, MCME, and Kymatic, and by soloists including Sergey Tchirkov, Natalia Pshenichnikova, Pavlos Antoniadis, and Leonard Dering. It has been featured at festivals such as Another Space, Territory, Moscow Forum, ISCM PAN Music Festival in Seoul, ReMusik, Baku Contemporary Music Days, and Voices Berlin. He has received numerous awards and scholarships, including the Open Space Laboratory (2017, Grand Prix), Russian Music 2.0 (2020, laureate), and the DAAD Scholarship (2025).
