Europa

Preceded by one or more rehearsals, this program invites spectators to take an active part in the show from the hall. They accompany the artists who are on stage by singing excerpts from works prepared beforehand.

Like a call to universal brotherhood – that embodied in Beethoven's Ode to Joy – amateur choirs unite for a vast tour of Europe.
