pOpera

pOpera is open to all participants, and more specifically refugees and people who just arrived in Luxemburg. Teenagers under-16 years old must be accompanied by a parent.

With the guidance of a dedicated and talented artistic team, the participants receive professional mentorship during workshops which will take place at the heart of Luxembourg's prestigious Philharmonie. The project has several goals:

• Empower refugees through the transformative power of music and storytelling 
• Help the refugees express their personal narratives, hopes and dreams in a collaborative and inclusive environment 
• Foster creativity and artistic abilities as well as understanding between different communities 

pOpera celebrates the extraordinary talents and stories of individuals who have experienced displacement, creating a platform for their voices to be heard and theirs stories to be shared with a wider audience.

The participants were on stage on September 21, 2023 at the Philharmonie Luxembourg, to make the audience dream with their stories and artistic sensibilities.

From 25 September 2023, weekly workshops will be held at the Philharmonie with percussionist Amit Dhuri and Paulo Lameiro.

These regular meetings provide participants with an opportunity to meet and share through music, and give them a chance to express themselves in ways other than words.

With a view to inclusion through music, the participants will also go and see concerts together and take part in some of the performances.
