Each year, the Ostrava Centre of New Music prepares the festival of contemporary classical music - Ostravské dny (the Ostrava Days). OKD is the general partner of this biennale.
The Ostrava Days attract mainly students of prestigious music colleges and conservatories. Nevertheless, also present are well-known professional conductors, players and composers from the world. During the two preparatory weeks the young composers partake in seminars and rehearse the works which are then performed at the week-long “marathon” of 15 concerts, which is the highlight of the whole project. The concerts take place in August in the Janáček Conservatory and the Cultural House of the Ostrava city.
