Effervescent musicality meets the ultimate in professionalism to create an extravaganza that nobody could have achieved alone .

‘ We are relentlessly ambitious when we gather up and thrust forward the voice , culture and history of the performers in Fargespill . ( Kaleidoscope in English ). Therefore , we select the best ; a first-class symphony orchestra that has the flexibility and playfulness needed to make this concert a milestone in our history ’ , says Ole Hamre , one of two artistic directors of Fargespill . Joining Fargespill in the medley are two young classical soloists who will be playing instruments on loan from Dextra Musica .

Fargespill are masters of combining expressiveness and professionality in order to create vivid dramatic art . Children and youths bring their unique expressiveness – a story to tell through their own cultural inheritance . Their story is given a professional framework in the form of top-drawer artistic and technical staff in order to elevate and give it momentum .

During the festival this principle is taken to new heights as a symphony orchestra of international standing meets an animated eruption of 100 children and youths from 35 countries – who together crash through social barriers and shatter musical boundaries .
