Yang Lin was awarded a grant by the Ernst von Siemens Musikstiftung in 2009. Born in 1982 in Beijing, she started studying music in 1995 in her hometown, and continued to study music afterwards in Freiburg with Cornelius Schwehr. The Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation wrote when they gave her the award, “Yang Lin is not interested in what is certain or in the result, she is interested in the transition, in the ‘being in motion,’ in the path leading there.”

Raphaël Cendo is currently studying under a scholarship at the Académie française in the Villa Medici in Rome, and he has been a lecturer in composition at the School of Music in Nanterre since 2008. He studied at the École Normale and at the Conservatoire National Supérieure de Musique in Paris, and he attended composition courses taught by Brian Ferneyhough; Fausto Romitelli; and Philippe Manoury. In 2007 he was awarded the Prix Espoir at the Orchestre Symphonique Montréal’s composition competition.
