The Off-ICMC
Music is what brings us together, even when everything else pulls us apart.
Music everywhere—it is part of our everyday lives. And yet, we’re hearing it performed live on analog instruments less and less. Instead, it often reaches us through speakers or headphones, as files, from the cloud. What does music mean to you? What does it sound like today? Where does it begin—and where does it end?
The ligeti center invites you to listen more closely and discover new sounds—to explore, experiment, and play. This year, ICMC HAMBURG 2026 revives an old tradition: the Off-ICMC, a free and accompanying festival curated for the general public and anyone curious about computer music.
All Off-ICMC events are free of charge.
