Canadian-born composer Philip Przybyło (2000) has Polish roots: his parents emigrated from Poland to Canada in the nineties. At the age of 18, Philip moved to the Netherlands, where he studied with Richard Ayres, Wim Henderickx, Jorrit Tamminga, Maya Verlaak and Willem Jeths. Last year, he won the Tera de Marez Oyens Award. A new work of his – featuring a remarkable mix of live and pre-recorded bass clarinets – will premiere in the autumn of 2025: “bloodshot mangroves. starved reeds”. This work can be heard at the Gaudeamus Festival and the Basklarinet Festijn.
