The ULYSSES Platform
In light of the fact that young creation in the field of new music is today more active than ever, the ULYSSES Network partners began in 2011 to imagine a new online tool conceived to easily identify and support artistic initiatives on an international level.
The ambition was to set a benchmark in the European cultural sphere, meeting the needs and expectations of contemporary music professionals and young artists.
Promoting collaboration and exchange between disciplines, artists, and organizations, the ULYSSES Network Platform is fully in line with this dynamic.
The ULYSSES Platform, dedicated to contemporary classical music makers, has grown since 2012 to become a significant venue for digital networking, seeking and offering opportunities in the field.
The ULYSSES Platform is an online platform open to a wide network of artists (musicians, composers, conductors), artistic directors, cultural managers, and organizations from all over the world united by a common passion: contemporary music. The platform has to date almost 4600 members and the number is growing constantly.
=> Becoming a member is and will remain free of charge.
The heart of the platform is a community of individuals, ensembles, and organizations who are active in contemporary music. After creating a profile, all members are able to send messages to each other, upload works to an ever-growing library of new music, share events and make applications to calls and competitions.
