Philipp Maintz is one of the most promising composers of the young generation. After the great acclaim of his string quartet, INNER CIRCLE, premiered in 2004 at the Wittener Tage fur Neue Musik by the Arditti Quartet, he composed a major orchestral work, heftige landschaften mit 16 baumen, which was premiered at the Salzburger Festspiele on 21 August 2005 by the Radio-Sinfonierorchester Stuttgart under Lothar Zagrosek and subsequently given in british first performance by the BBC symphony orchestra under Pierre-Andre Valade. His latest work (for ensemble and live-electronic) was premiered in November 2005 at the festival Wien modern by the Ensemble Integrales with great success. These three works are performed by Ensemble Alternance, an ensemble of composers who unite to perform one anothers' compositions.
