The 10th edition of the Concours Nicati, the concours suisse de musique contemporaine organized by the Fondation Nicati de Luze, took place in Lucerne from 21 to 27 August. It was organized by the HSLU-Music, partner of the event. Three categories were presented: Solo and Ensemble, in which the candidates and candidates performed compositions written in Switzerland and abroad after 1945, and the Open Space category, which featured creations that did not take the form of a conventional concert. The competition brought together many different facets of contemporary music: instrumental and vocal pieces, musical theater, electronic music, multimedia works and multidisciplinary performances.

6 ensembles, 14 soloists and 9 open space projects from all over Switzerland were selected. Over 7 days, the public freely attended 26 concerts and 11 spectacles, including the finales followed by aperitifs offered to all.

The prizes of the finalists amount to CHF 48,000, including, for the first prizes, the opportunity to compete in the IGNM Bern, SMC Lausanne and FNML Lucerne seasons.
