"Music and Songs from Europe: How Do They Bring Us Together?"
A vocal experiment.
District Cantor Peter Scholl (Bach Choir Siegen)
People in Europe speak many different languages—and yet they can still sing together. But why does music bring people together so strongly? What actually happens when we sing? And can music express emotions, even if you don’t understand the language at all?
Together, we’ll discover songs from different European countries, explore our voices, and sing together. In doing so, we’ll realize that music can transcend borders and build community.
