  • Orchester Con Anima Freiburg - Carola Christ
    Dec 2 2021

    'Imagine if every person who felt the desire to learn an instrument and actively make music could do so regardless of their age, cultural, social or financial background, level of education or other hurdles - and do so in an orchestra from the very beginning. It's a crazy idea, its implementation challenging - but possible and absolutely necessary!'

    Three years after its founding, Carola Christ talks about her heart's project 'Orchester Con Anima Freiburg' and why it is primarily aimed at young adults.

    Sep 15 2021
    “There is a rethinking. An economic, ecological rethinking for bringing things back into balance." Since last season, Jochen Sandig has been the director of the Ludwigsburger Schlossfestspiele, and as co-initiator of the "World Human Forum" has committed himself to making the United Nations' sustainability goals heard. In this podcast, Musicians for Solidarity talk to him about how he implements this and how it is reflected in the program of his festival.
