The "Roche Young Commissions" were created in 2013 as part of the partnership of Roche with Lucerne Festival and the Lucerne Festival Academy: Every two years this program gives out commissions for new works to two emerging composers. This summer, the Lucerne Festival Contemporary Orchestra (LFCO) will yet again premiere two exciting new scores. Get to know them in our podcast "Deep Listening: New Music".
