100 years have passed since the birth of two great composers. On December 10th Olivier Messiaen's (d. April 27, 1992) centennial was celebrated with concerts worldwide and today, December 11, it's Elliot Carter's 100th birthday. Quite remarkebly Carter is still very much active as a composer and composed no less than nine pieces last year and another seven are scheduled for next year.
A fund dedicated to the memory of the late opera singer Birgit Nilsson has just announced the biggest prize in the history of classical music.
Apocrypha, a 45 minute long composition for baroque ensemble, percussion, live electronics and mezzo-soprano, by MusMap co-founder Hugi Gudmundsson is now available on a CD. The piece was written over a two year period and has been performed live in both Holland and Iceland. The piece received the Icelandic Music Awards in 2008 and the CD has just been awarded the Kraumur Awards.
