Young Musicians European Orchestra
Talented musicians for live concerts in Ravenna
The
Young Musicians European Orchestra of Ravenna has been active since
2008, a reality of young musicians, of average age 23 years, coming from
all over Europe and, over time, also from countries outside Europe.
From time to time, his staff is also made up of senior musicians, that
is the members who have participated in numerous performances in the
first years of activity. On certain occasions the Young Musicians
European Orchestra also had the pride of integrating valid components
from the main conservatories of Beijing, Moscow, Shanghai and
Madrid,
as well as young musicians from the Tehran Symphony Orchestra, with
whom the Young Musicians European Orchestra has collaborated in two
concerts, one in the Iranian capital and the other in Ravenna. Finally,
it is worth mentioning the participation of some talented musicians from
North Korea, playing Mozart's Requiem together with Muenchener-Bach
Chor, one of the most acclaimed choral teams in the world.
Contacts
Important collaborations all over the world
At
the Easter concert in Sant'Apollinare in Classe in 2007 at the concert
in Jerusalem in 2013, the Young Musicians European Orchestra had the
pleasure of collaborating and being filmed by the broadcaster Rai. Over
the years, the orchestra has been able to gain the interest and favor of
an ever wider audience: an important occasion was the concert at the
Basilica of San Vitale on the occasion of a historic conference between
Catholic and Protestant bishops and Orthodox. On the occasion of the
Christmas Concert project, in 2016 the Young Musicians European
Orchestra performed in Romagna, where all the rehearsals were opened to
the public, while the second part of the project took place first in
Rieti and in some areas hit by the earthquake in that year, later in
Rome at the Paolina Chapel of the Quirinale, in Jerusalem, in Bethlehem,
and finally in Matera.
Music awareness
Every
single activity carried out by the young musicians of the Young
Musicians European Orchestra is part of a larger project: making young
people aware of music. To achieve this goal, the training makes use of
the valuable contributions of the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and
Activities, of the Mae and the Emilia-Romagna Region, as well as of the
Municipality of Ravenna, obtaining the patronage of the Unesco Youth
Committee. All the events of the Young Musicians European Orchestra are
carried out to promote peace, culture and dialogue between nations,
ideals that only music can fully exalt.
Activities with professional soloists
2019
was an important year for the young musicians of the Ravenna orchestra:
from recording the first record with the Passion according to Mark to
organizing tours in China, Russia, Israel and Palestine, the Young
Musicians European Orchestra also developed interesting international
projects with world-famous soloists. Uto Ughi, Kian Soltani, Jonathan
Roozeman, Roman Kim, Timoty Ridout, Gabriele Strata and Francesca Dego
are some of the names that have had the pleasure of collaborating with
the European Youth Orchestra. Thanks to excellent versatility, the Young
Musicians European Orchestra is able to form itself into small chamber
groups and perform a wide range of musical genres, from baroque to
contemporary.
