Lera Auerbach Festival
On 21 October 2023, composer Lera Auerbach reaches her fiftieth birthday. From 15 to 22 October, we celebrate this occasion with a festival in The Hague entirely dedicated to her. Lera Auerbach is a particularly versatile artist: a composer, but also a concert pianist, conductor, poet and visual artist. Her repertoire is richly varied – delicate and bold, worldly and sublime, contemporary and romantic – and is played on major international concert stages worldwide.
The multi-day festival in The Hague includes performances of her remarkable compositions, an exhibition of her sculptures and aphorisms, side-by-side projects with the Royal Conservatoire, lectures, and meetings. Visit the Lera Auerbach Festival in The Hague, a unique opportunity to get to know this versatile artist!
