Music Contest. Live at Klee
Are you a talented musician from Switzerland? Do you play solo or in a formation (acoustic or semi-acoustic)? Then apply for the Music Contest at the Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern!
The competition offers you the chance to be judged by a panel of experts. The prize is three live performances: at the Museum Night 2026 at the Zentrum Paul Klee, at the Mühle Hunziken as support and at Gustav in the Bierhübeli Bern.
Applications are possible until 30 April 2025.
Send us your application by email with links to three of your songs and a link to your bio: events@zpk.org
The three finalists will perform live on Saturday, 21 June 2025, at the Zentrum Paul Klee's anniversary celebration (30 minutes each). The jury will select and announce the winner(s) on the same evening.
- Selina Gartmann, Music Promotion Bern / Swiss Music Export Office
- Jasmina Serag, musician / Sirens Of Lesbos
- Nina Zimmer, director Kunstmuseum Bern - Zentrum Paul Klee
- Pascal Rötheli, Seaside Festival
- Philippe Cornu, Gadget Entertainment Group AG
In addition to musical quality, the jury will also judge criteria such as stage presence, interaction with the audience, charisma, enthusiasm and independence.
The spatial conditions of the auditorium at the Zentrum Paul Klee require a semi-acoustic realisation of the songs.
