Valencia’s Palau de la Música is organising a pre-concert talk featuring three leading figures in contemporary classical music. The event, held in Sala Rodrigo, will serve as an introduction to the concert scheduled for the same evening.
Who is taking part
The discussion will include:
- Helmut Lachenmann, German composer and resident composer of the Orquestra de València for the 2026-2027 season.
- Alexander Liebreich, principal conductor of the orchestra, who will lead seven subscription concerts this season.
- Nieves Pascual, intendant of the Orquestra de València, who will moderate the conversation.
Content of the talk
These events typically explore the historical context, interpretative keys, and technical details of the works to be performed in the subsequent concert. While the specific programme has not been confirmed, Lachenmann’s role as resident composer suggests his work may be a central focus.

The talk will begin at 18:00 in Sala Rodrigo. It has not been confirmed whether separate tickets are required or if access is included with the concert ticket. The duration of the event has also not been specified, though such sessions usually last between 45 and 60 minutes.
