Ensemble Modern Board of Patrons e.V.

Following the initiative of the former Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media, Prof. Dr. Christina Weiss, the neuroscientist Prof. Dr. Wolf Singer and the poet, translator and literary scholar Prof. Dr. Klaus Reichert, the Ensemble Modern Board of Patrons e.V. was founded in October 2015. This association wishes to attract personalities from the areas of culture, science, business and politics who wish to sustain Ensemble Modern’s work through annual financial donations. Its particular goal is to support world premieres and German premieres of new works and the implementation of interdisciplinary projects. The Board of Patrons has received generous initial funding from the Hans and Gertrud Zender Foundation.
