🎼 SYMPHONIC SESSION OF THE MYO 🎼
This year, the Mediterranean Youth Orchestra (@ojm_myo_festival_aix ), its musical director @duncan_ward_conductor, and guest cellist Camille Thomas, propose a musical journey punctuated by stopovers illustrating the diversity of cultures and music that form the ensemble’s identity. Alongside the venerable pages of Saint-Saëns and Ravel, we will hear works by the Egyptian composer Gamal Abdel-Rahim and Betsy Jolas, to whom the Festival is dedicating a portrait, as well as the collective creation with improvisers, former participants to the Medinea Sessions.

🌟 SUCCESS STORY🌟
After @the_mosaic_band, @clerc.noe -former Medinea Sessions participant- returns on the @festivalaix's stage with his atypical trio – accordion, double bass, drums – to propose music nourished by snapshots and impressions that playfully shakes up the harmonic and rhythmic codes of jazz. Two exceptional guests take the ensemble to unexplored shores: the young Lebanese trombonist @kid_khoury and the legendary percussionist @garayminino, a real connoisseur of Latin cultures. That’s how links are forged from one generation to the next 🎵

💻MEDINEA ON AIR📚
The webinars of the #MedineaOnAir session 4 are online on our YouTube channel 🤗 👏 Link 👉🏽 on our bio
This last session is devoted to more general perspectives in terms of the career development of young professional musicians. Musicians are introduced to the practice of orchestral and choral conducting as well as to other notions related to artistic leadership. Participants are presented with traditional Iberian and classical repertoires, and with the idea of musical dialogue — i.e. between electronic and acoustic instruments, and between different Mediterranean music influences. These topics will lead to a reflection on interculturality and the existence of a shared Mediterranean identity.
