Description

Royal Conservatoire, The Hague, Netherlands grants 3 scholarships. ChoreoComp (Choreography & Composition) is an intensive, free, six-day course (31/8-5/9 ’26) for 3 choreographers and 3 composers who are interested in (speed) creating movement and music with live musicians and dancers. Choreographers who apply should be able to make fast decisions, improvise, work together/communicate clearly with the composers, musicians and dance ensemble ( KC bachelor classical & contemporary dancers) and be practical when it comes to producing strategies. After receiving an artistic assignment in the morning, the three choreographers will pair up with a new composer, new musicians and new dancers, every two days to work out a concept. Composers will work independently on these concepts together with their musicians in their studios in Amare while the choreographers work with dancers in the dance studios. At the end of the first day, a recording is made of the sketches so far by the composer so that the dancers can already start working with the sound. On the second-day composers/musicians and choreographers finish their work and rehearsals take place for the presentation in the evening. Every second day there is a performance of three new pieces! ChoreoComp ’26 will be coached by a prominent choreographers/artistic director in Dance and composer/teacher Royal Conservatoire composition department (to announced on website soon) Fees for the course will be granted by the Conservatoire. Travel & accommodation is at own expense.
