Due to an initiative of two young german ladies, Julia Huk and Isabella Kohls, in November 2015 a intercultural Musicproject called "bridges - Musik verbindet" was started.Aim of the project is to play music together with refugees and german musicians. The basic idea is to take the power of music to integrate and help out people that had to flea from terror and hunger from their countries and had been stranded in germany. As well as to overcome differences and kearn ecach other to know.
In a first meeting groups of musicians have been created where the diffrenet nationalities of musicians will together work on certain musical pieces.
This work will end up in a concert played together at the Hall of the Hessischen Rundfunk in the Bertramstrasse 8, 60320 Frankfurt on april 19th 2016.
Entrance is free, but for donations will be asked. The concert is beein held for donations for the german "refugees help foundation".
I signed in for this initiative in december 2015 and i will take part on this concert on april 19th together with 2 syrian drummers, 1 iranian drummer, 1 irakian Oud-player and a german singer as an Ensemble.
All the Ensembles that were put together connect very versatile styles, beginning with experimental compositions, traditional arabian or "World"-Musicstyles up to modern Popmusic. Something for every taste will be there... The Project "bridges" and it´s musicians are happy with your countless visit of the concert.
Today on 26. january at 19.30 p.m. a first glimbse of this intercultural broad music will be shown at the Hessenschau on german hr3-TV.
