World Music Day Celebration Event Refugee Week
Showcasing the Building Bridges project with music and dance performances by a diversity of artists including Orchestre des Réfugiés et Amis.
Managed by DU Dance NI with Beyond Skin as a project partner, Building Bridges is an intercultural arts project led by a team of four experienced artists. It’s an exciting new venture exploring human stories leading to a public performance. Young people aged 12 to 18 years work along side professional artists over a series of workshops to develop a performance production.
With local musician and Refugee support activist Joby Fox at the helm as the music director and photographer Rashid Khaidanov as the visual director, the Orchestre des Réfugiés et Amis has sparked much curiosity and is the inspirational sound of humanity at its best. (Source)
