The Russolo competition is one of the most prestigious contests for electro-acoustic composition. It began in 1979 as homage to the painter and composer Luigi Russolo, the founder of noise music. Initially and over 40 years, the Concorso Internazionale Luigi Rusolo, was organised by Gian Franco Maffina and Rossana Maggia at the Fundazione Russolo-Pratella (Varèse).

After a short break, the competition returned in 2010 under the co-direction of Studio Forum and Gràcia Territori Sonor within the Bruit de la Neige Festival (Annecy) and the LEM Festival (Barcelona).

This year, the contest will be held for the sixth consecutive year in two different locations, Zones Refuges Editions (Doussard – França) on the 31st of May 2014 and during October 2015 at the Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona (MACBA, Spain).
