Open Call: Month of Contemporary Music 2023

In 2023, the Month of Contemporary Music (1.–30.09.2023) will once again present the unparalleled diversity of Berlin's contemporary music scene. The umbrella festival invites you to discover current works by Berlin ensembles, artists and composers in concerts, performances and sound installations – both in established concert halls and in independent venues.

The Month of Contemporary Music is curated by the scene itself: ensembles, festivals, venues and artists are invited to contribute events to the program. The inm / field notes only coordinates the individual events and administers cross-festival communication. Via the common framework of the Month of Contemporary Music, a wide range of activities can be adequately showcased and communicated to a broader public.

Participation in the Month of Contemporary Music

To submit an event for the Month of Contemporary Music, it is sufficient to enter the event directly in the field notes calendar by 20 June 2023. In order for us to be able to initiate the publicity measures as early as possible and to give special consideration to your event, it would also be good if you let us know in advance by e-mail (mdzm@field-notes.berlin) that you are planning to take part in Month of Contemporary Music. Of course, you can also contact us at any time if you have any questions.

Deadline: 20th of June 2023

Planning calendar

We have been asked to reintroduce the planning calendar for better coordination (especially in the month of contemporary music). You can enter confirmed dates (green) and date options (yellow).

The more the calendar is used, the more helpful it is. So please feel free to pass on the information to your colleagues. For our part, we will make sure that the big festivals also enter their dates there.
