When the Ruhr region was chosen as the European Capital of Culture, its artistic director Steven Sloane immediately saw Hans Werner Henze as a musical focus, a world star with roots in the region and an oeuvre that encompasses all musical genres as well as a wide range of opportunities for children, young people and amateurs, and who could thus connect the entire region.
As part of Ruhr.2010 European Capital of Culture and the “Henze Project - New Music for a Metropolis” contained therein, musicologists Elisabeth Schmierer and Norbert Abels held a symposium at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen from November 5 to 6, 2010.
