Gaudeamus Award 2025

A maximum of five composers will be nominated for the Award. The nominees will be part of the Gaudeamus Festival 2025 (10-14 September). On the final night of the festival the winner of the Award will be chosen by an independent jury. The prize consists of a commission worth €5,000 for a new composition to be premiered at a future edition of the Gaudeamus Festival. The nominees’ main entries for the competition will be performed during the festival. They will also be commissioned to develop a new piece especially for the festival. After the festival, Gaudeamus will continue to support the nominated composers. Selected works may be performed elsewhere, and composers will be regularly involved in festivals and co-productions with other organizations. The intention is to further the career development of young composers.
