James MacMillan (born 16 July 1959) is a Scottish classical composer and conductor. He studied composition at the University of Edinburgh with Rita McAllister and Kenneth Leighton, and at Durham University with John Casken. MacMillan came to the attention of the classical establishment with the BBC Scottish SO's premiere of The Confession of Isobel Gowdie at the Proms in 1990. Further successes have included his second opera The Sacrifice and the St John Passion. MacMillan's music is infused with the spiritual and the political. His Roman Catholic faith has inspired many of his sacred works.

Theo Verbey (5 July 1959 – 13 October 2019) was a Dutch classical composer whose music is performed by orchestras and ensembles throughout the world. He studied at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague where his principal composition teachers were Peter Schat and Jan van Vlijmen. Verbey taught at both the Royal Conservatory of The Hague and the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, as well as having been on the composition jury for the Queen Elisabeth Music Competition in Brussels in 1992 and 1997. His works are considered to be associated with Postmodern music and shows a high regard for structure.

Luciano Berio (24 October 1925 – 27 May 2003) was an Italian composer. He studied at the Milan Conservatory under Giulio Cesare Paribeni and Giorgio Federico Ghedini, and went on to study with Luigi Dallapiccola at Tanglewood. Berio is noted for his experimental work (in particular his Sinfonia and his series of virtuosic solo pieces Sequenza) and also for his pioneering work in electronic music. His early work was influenced by Igor Stravinsky and experiments with serial and electronic techniques, while his later works explore indeterminacy and the use of spoken texts as the basic material for composition.

Jörgen van Rijen (born 20 February 1975) started playing trombone at age 8, and at the age of 16 began studying at the Rotterdam Conservatory under George Wiegel. His teachers also include Michel Becquet and Daniel Lassalle. After briefly being principal trombone with the Rotterdam Philharmonic, he joined the Royal Concertgebouw in the same position in 1997. Since 2003 he has also been a founder and leading member of the New Trombone Collective. A frequent guest soloist with a number of orchestras, van Rijen was also invited to perform with the New York Philharmonic and the Lucerne Festival Orchestra.
