Conceived in multiple phases and incorporating both online and in-person meetings, four new works by selected young composers will be collaboratively developed by hand werk and the composers starting around July 2025. The initial phases included online workshops and individual lessons, bringing the ensemble and the selected composers together, which will culminate in a seven-day in-person workshop in İzmir. The Next Generation Series-VI resulting compositions are scheduled to be performed and presented at İzmir New Music Days-VI on October 12, 2025.
