preface
O
ver the years, the European Chamber Music Academy has
b ecome more and more European. It has been ecognised as the
highest level of international training in the field, new partners
(institutions and universities of music) have been added, there
has been more cooperation, and new ensembles (often consisting
of young artists from different countries) have become a part of it.
We can thus say that it has been a successful adventure so far.
But being European is also a great responsibility. Chamber music’s in-
ternationally recognised point of reference is European chamber music.
And there indeed is a common basis, a common tradition here. But at
the same time, multiple languages and multiple cultures are involved.
Composers think in their own languages and with reference to their
own cultures, and the thoughts and intentions behind written music are
almost always tied thereto.
For this reason, if we want to be Europeans, we need to be federalists,
in music as elsewhere: we cannot refer to a cultural unicum, but much
rather need to learn about and recognise the differences that exist.
It may seem all too simple as an idea, but it is in precisely these
differences that we find the real opportunity of being together.
Hence the itinerant approach of the ECMA sessions; hence the presence
of great teachers from different backgrounds; and hence ECMA’s spirit,
which is not about teaching the one and only interpretation but about
offering reflections on the music in order to discover its ability to unite
amidst all differences.
If ECMA, working with this approach, can help shape a generation of
artists able not only to play music at the highest level but also to c onvey
the thoughts behind the music, convey its aesthetic, philosophical, and
social values, then it will have achieved its goal.
Make music, think music, search for reasons and emotions in music,
and move those who are listening. Be together. Grow together.
That’s all it is. Which is no small thing!
Mathias Deichmann

HOLDING AGSTATEMENTS about ECMA II
STATEMENTS about ECMA II For us in Oslo, the opportunity to access the best impulses in European chamber
music represents a great enrichment. And at our Oslo Sessions, it was important
to us that the ECMA participants have a chance to experience the highlights of
our Norwegian cultural history. In the midst of our session venue’s beautiful
natural surroundings, we visited art museums and listened to folk music, with the
participants also dancing folk dances themselves.
