International meeting place for the development of contemporary music
The Kalv festival is a yearly contemporary music festival that since its inception in 2004 has explored the world of experimental new music in the beautiful countryside south-east of Gothenburg, through show-casing interdisciplinary and pedagogical projects, work-shops as well as commissioning and staging some of the most important musical works of the last century. A feature which has placed the festival as one of the key contemporary music festivals of Sweden and integrated it socially and culturally in the local regional life.
This year, the festival ends with a large-scale concert in Kalv’s Kyrka: Varberg chamber choir, organist Johannes Landgren and Gageego! under the direction of conductor Gunno Palmquist!
This year we announce Utopica Futura! Utopica as its etymological, no-place, as an echo of the music we have given space to for so many years…
This year, utopias are invited, the future is suggested. We mix music from the last millennium with the newly written.
