PAINTED BY MUSIC: Music and art bringing people together

A unique classical concert in which people in the audience will collaborate with the musicians by painting.
Through this project we want to reach a specific audience, who often find it difficult to access classical music concerts or the concerts are not adapted to their needs and sensitivities.
