We joyfully recall the exceptional final concert of the international project "MUSIC FOR FUTURE" which took place on July 6, 2024, at the Center for Performing Arts (Piekarnia Żywa Kultura) in Wrocław. The concert featured a youth orchestra composed of talented young musicians from Poland, Ukraine, and Germany. It was not only a musical event but also a celebration of integration, mutual understanding, and collective creativity.
The concert began with a brief yet emotional piece by Terry Riley, "In C" setting the enchanting tone for the evening.
Following this, speeches and greetings were delivered:
Dorota Krajdocha, Board Member and Managing Director of the Krzyżowa Foundation, warmly welcomed everyone and emphasized the importance of international cooperation.
Yurii Tokar, Consul General of Ukraine in Wrocław, expressed his joy at participating in such a unique event.
Torsten Göhler, Deputy Consul General of Germany in Wrocław, highlighted the significance of culture and music in building bridges between nations.
The main part of the concert, conducted by Mateusz Rusowicz, featured remarkable pieces, including:
- Antonín Dvořák's Symphony No. 9 in E minor, "From the New World"
- Mykola Lysenko's Valse "La Separation" ("Separation Waltz")
- Gioachino Rossini's overture to the opera "The Barber of Seville"
- Gabriel Fauré's Pavane, Op. 50
"MUSIC FOR FUTURE" is a project that transcends borders and languages, building bridges between people’s hearts. Music became a universal language that united us all, regardless of cultural or historical differences. Through collective music-making, we had the opportunity to strengthen bonds that will remain in the memories of participants and listeners for a long time.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the musicians for their passion, dedication, and hard work, which resulted in an unforgettable program.
Thank you for being with us, and we invite you to view the photos from this extraordinary event!
Thank you all!
