PROJECT
Voyage of Vibrant Verses
Voyage of Vibrant Verses: A European Soundscape aims to capture and celebrate diversity through an immersive concert, mirroring the global resonance found in Europe's intertwining cultures.
This is not just a celebration of Europe’s musical heritage, but an invitation to explore the continent’s long-standing spirit of openness, dialogue, and creativity. Through music, the Akhtamar Quartet aspire to evoke the essence of a modern Europe – a continent that remains always vibrant with the chords of diversity, integration, and global connectivity.
The concert, designed by the stage director and composer Jelena Dabic, is envisaged as a voyage through Europe's sonic landscape, time and space, portraying the co-existence of diverse cultural expressions.
