With this project the Conductors Forumand the Deutsche Orchester-Stiftung give the young conductor and the soloists the opportunity to gain experiences abroad and to make important international contacts. The project is accompanied by the Consulat General of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Goethe-Institut in Ho Chi Minh City.
