Annual Gala Dinner and Concert 4 December 2017 The Plaza Theatre Brussels

A dialogue of souls around the Mediterranean Sea
A unique musical production bringing together musicians from diverse cultures guided by Grand Maestro Jordi Savall, who embodies the same values as Yehudi Menuhin (sharing, respect of diversity, co-creation and intercultural dialogue). Musicians from Israel, Syria, Turkey, Greece and Spain will perform a musical dialogue which includes songs of Christian, Sephardic, Ottoman and Arab-Andalusian origins. Prompted by the large flows of migrants and refugees throughout Europe and the Mediterranean, this theme aims at raising awareness of the cultural richness of the countries bordering the Mare Nostrum. The concert will demonstrate how music can serve an even more prominent role in cultural diplomacy.
On stage we will welcome Jordi Savall
