Talent development - coaching
Offering new compositional and stage talent a place to develop is a priority for Slagwerk Den Haag (SDH). Since its inception over 35 years ago, SDH has regularly worked in close collaboration with young composers, often in response to a given composition assignment. New stage talent - young percussionists as well as young artists from other disciplines - are given opportunities to develop and receive coaching as part of the KOnStrukt series within Young SDH and as part of regular SDH-concerts.
KOnStrukt is a series of informally presented concerts by/for young percussionists and composers. The KOnStrukt series is organised in cooperation with the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and Korzo Theater. Young SDH comprises a pool of young percussionists, many of whom are still students, who are given the opportunity to realise various productions under the SDH umbrella.
