In addition to teaching, many of our teachers can also be seen on stage all over the world.
For example, our paedagogue Basel Alkatrib.
It is part of the Orchestra „Sounds of Hope“, which was founded in 2021. It consists of 30 musicians from Leipzig, with roots all over the world, who perform songs and melodies from different cultures in their own arrangements and compositions. Instruments such as violin, clarinet, cello and piano meet oud, santur, kanun and tar and together form a lively body of sound that reflects the diversity of the musicians' cultural roots.
The orchestra is a project of the Transcultural Music Forum Leipzig and aims to use musical diversity to connect people from different backgrounds through music. Since 2025, there has also been a youth orchestra modelled on the adult orchestra.
