SoundTrack_Zurich 04

September 29 - October 01, 2023
Zurich / Switzerland

SoundTrack_Zurich 04 is the three-day professional event on film and media music held as part of the Zurich Film Festival. The conference offers a series of panels, networking sessions, case studies and workshops that address current issues in today's film and media music scene. Another important element is the networking of film composers with the international guests of the Zurich Film Festival.

SoundTrack_Zurich is organised by Forum Filmmusik, curated by Michael P. Aust (SoundTrack_Cologne) in collaboration with Zurich Film Festival (ZFF), Tonhalle-Gesellschaft Zürich, ZHdK (Zurich University of Arts), SoundTrack_Cologne and SONART (Musikschaffende Schweiz).

New strong appearance: Film music at the Zurich Film Festival

For many years, the Zurich Film Festival (ZFF) has been inviting important international film composers like Hans Zimmer (Pirates of the Carribean, Lion King), Gabriel Yared (English Patient, Bruno Manser) and has had composers like Cliff Martinez (Drive, Solaris), Anne Dudley (The Full Monty), Don Davis (Matrix) preside the Jury of the International Film Music Competition. The annual film music concert at the Tonhalle Zurich has been one of the highlights of the festival. The Zurich Film Festival’s new artistic director Christian Jungen aims to open up even more to film music.

SoundTrack_Zurich (STZ) is closely linked to the ZFF and its guests as well as to the International Film Music Competition. With IMMSANE (International Media Music & Sound Arts | Network in Education) ZHdK hosts a platform for an international exchange about university education in film and media music.

In this sense, SoundTrack_Zurich acts as an umbrella brand for all film music activities that take place during the Zurich Film Festival.
