How to get attention?

The presence of contemporary music in the media

Discussion with Reinhard Kager (ARD correspondent), Andreas Kolb (Neue Musikzeitung), Nina Polaschegg (music journalist, musician), Michael Rebhahn (music journalist) a.o.

Eva-Maria Stöckler (Donau-Universität Krems), moderation

Krenek did not only try to give new music an adequate status in professional journals like "Musikzeitschrift 23" or "Im Anbruch", published by Universal Edition, but also started heavy discussions in daily newspapers like Frankfurter and Wiener Zeitung about the qualification of contemporary music.

How can the presence of contemporary music in the media be supported? How can the topics by the editorial staff, who mostly drop brand new music, be justified? Journalists from Austria and abroad, from print media and radio, discuss the reasons, why contemporary music gets so little attention in the media.
