KLANG is Denmark's largest festival for contemporary music. KLANG attracts foreign and Danish ensembles and soloists, collaborates with symphony orchestras and produces opera and embraces music from post-World War II, but focuses on the latest music. This has been the case since 2009, when the Athelas New Music Festival grew out of Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen under the then artistic director Anders Beyer. The festival retained the name Athela's New Music Festival and its close association with Athela's Sinfonietta up to and including 2012 with Anders Beyer as artistic director throughout the years. Although the festival changed its name to KLANG and severed the very close ties to Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen, the ensemble is still a significant part of the festival with a spectacular concert every year. From 2013-2015, Rune Glerup and Christian Winther Christensen were artistic directors for the festival, where it consolidated itself into its new form, and from 2015 onwards the festival management has been composed of Christian Winther Christensen and Regin Petersen.
